Full lyrics

Vocês estão vendo qual é o resultado

De moça nova ter mais de dez namorado

Vocês estão vendo qual é o resultado

De moça nova ter mais de dez namorado


A Tertulina namorava até demais

Qualquer rapaz para ela estava bom

Menina, um belo dia ela se mandou pro Rio

E nesse clima frio a coisa mudou de tom


Agora anda na esplanada do castelo

Com três bruguelos, se lastimando da sorte

Ai, Tertulina!

Quem mandou tu vir do norte?


A Tertulina lá no Ceará

Danou-se a namorar desde o tempo do colégio

Chegou no Rio queria fazer pior

E lá se foi a vaca pro brejo


Vocês estão vendo qual é o resultado

De moça nova ter mais de dez namorado

Vocês estão vendo qual é o resultado

De moça nova ter mais de dez namorado


A Tertulina namorava até demais

Qualquer rapaz para ela estava bom

Menina, um belo dia ela se mandou pro Rio

E nesse clima frio a coisa mudou de tom


Agora anda na esplanada do castelo

Com três bruguelos, se lastimando da sorte

Ai, Tertulina!

Quem mandou tu vir do norte?


A Tertulina lá no Ceará

Danou-se a namorar desde o tempo do colégio

Chegou no Rio queria fazer pior

E lá se foi a vaca pro brejo


A moçada que não brinca!

Translation

You are seeing what the result is

Of a young woman having more than ten boyfriends

You are seeing what the result is

Of a young woman having more than ten boyfriends


Tertulina dated far too much

Any boy was good enough for her

Girl, one beautiful day she left for Rio

And in that cold climate, things changed tone


Now she walks on the Castle Esplanade

With three little ones, lamenting her fate

Oh, Tertulina!

Who told you to come from the North?


Tertulina there in Ceará

Got into dating since her school days

Arrived in Rio wanting to do worse

And there, things went wrong


You are seeing what the result is

Of a young woman having more than ten boyfriends

You are seeing what the result is

Of a young woman having more than ten boyfriends


Tertulina dated far too much

Any boy was good enough for her

Girl, one beautiful day she left for Rio

And in that cold climate, things changed tone


Now she walks on the Castle Esplanade

With three little ones, lamenting her fate

Oh, Tertulina!

Who told you to come from the North?


Tertulina there in Ceará

Got into dating since her school days

Arrived in Rio wanting to do worse

And there, things went wrong


The young folks don't mess around!
