Full lyrics

A doce bailarina e seu vestido azul

Que habita um velho sonho que eu

Sonho acordado

Dançando ao som do baque de um Maracatu

Seria o anjo torto do poeta Carlos?


Anjo Azul na noite

Dançando no baque do Maracatu

Anjo azul na noite

Do baque virado do Maracatu


Anjo Azul na noite

Dançando no baque do Maracatu

Anjo azul na noite

Do baque virado do Maracatu


A doce bailarina e seu vestido azul

De boca sensual e sorriso escancarado

Seria bela Inês, la belle de jour?

Quem sabe o anjo torto do poeta Carlos?


Anjo Azul na noite

Dançando no baque do Maracatu

Anjo azul na noite

Do baque virado do Maracatu


Anjo Azul na noite

Dançando no baque do Maracatu

Anjo azul na noite

Me leve pra beira do mar

Ah! quero te namorar

Ah, quero te namorar

Ah, gata maracajá

Translation

The sweet ballerina and her blue dress

Who inhabits an old dream that I

Dream awake

Dancing to the sound of the beat of a Maracatu

Could she be the crooked angel of the poet Carlos?


Blue Angel in the night

Dancing to the beat of the Maracatu

Blue Angel in the night

Of the turned beat of the Maracatu


Blue Angel in the night

Dancing to the beat of the Maracatu

Blue Angel in the night

Of the turned beat of the Maracatu


The sweet ballerina and her blue dress

With a sensual mouth and an open smile

Could she be beautiful Inês, la belle de jour?

Who knows, the crooked angel of the poet Carlos?


Blue Angel in the night

Dancing to the beat of the Maracatu

Blue Angel in the night

Of the turned beat of the Maracatu


Blue Angel in the night

Dancing to the beat of the Maracatu

Blue Angel in the night

Take me to the seashore

Ah! I want to court you

Ah, I want to court you

Ah, maracajá cat
