Our translated lyrics this week: Samba Desenredo, by Brazilian band Meia Dúzia de 3 ou 4. Meia dúzia means half a dozen. Interesting name for the band, don’t you think?
This is not a light ballad. It is a samba about the end of the world. Complicado, né? Even if you are not in the end-of-the-world mood, you should check the song out. You will learn key vocabulary to understand the Samba Schools parade from Rio de Janeiro’s Carnival. Download the lyrics with translation into English by Street Smart Brazil to learn Carnival words such as Abre-alas, Porta-Bandeira, Bateria, Velha Guarda, and more.
