Cachimbo da Paz : traduction de Portugais vers Anglais
A cry
A cry
Crime takes over the city
Society blames the authorities
The official chief traveled to the Pantanal
Because here the violence is too much
And there he found an old Indian who wore a thong
And smoked a peace pipe
The president took a hit from the pipe and when it was time
To return to the capital he got lazy
He exchanged his suit for the thong and appointed
The old Indian as the minister of justice
And the new minister arriving in the city
Found that tribe too violent
He saw that every pale face lived behind bars
And called the TV and the newspapers
And said "Indian arrived bringing news
Indian brought the peace pipe"
Sea breeze, feel the sea breeze
Sea breeze, uuhu
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Send the smoke from the pipe to the head
Light it, pull it, hold it, pass it
Indian wants pipe, Indian wants to make smoke
Everyone tries the pipe of the forest
They say it's good
They say it's not good
They want to ban it, they want to legalize it
And the controversy reached the congress
All this must be to avoid competition
Because it's not Hollywood but it's a success
The peace pipe made the people more peaceful
But the smoke ran out because there were only eighty kilos
And the people applauded when the Indian left for the jungle
And promised to return with a ton
But when he returned "it got dirty"!
The federal police prepared a trap
"The peace pipe is banned, get in the truck vagabond
Let's go to the police station, eh eh, Indian is screwed
Because there the stick is going to hit!"
Sea breeze, feel the sea breeze
Sea breeze, uuhu
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Send the smoke from the pipe to the head
Light it, pull it, hold it, pass it
Indian wants pipe, Indian wants to make smoke
In the police station there were only addicts and delinquents
Each one with a vice and a different case
A drunkard stabbed the bar owner
Because he didn't sell liquor on credit
And a man drank too much whiskey
Woke up with a transvestite and killed the poor thing
A gambling addict bet his wife
Lost the bet and she was kidnapped
There were so many occurrences, so much violence
That the Indian didn't understand anything
He saw that the police chief smoked a stinky cigar
And lit a "peace" one to relax
But when he went to take a little hit
He got a violent slap and a kick in that place
He was sent to prison and on the way he watched
An accident caused by too much beer
A young woman who drank too much
Ran over a priest and the bride and groom
At the church door
And for the Indian nothing makes sense anymore
With so many drugs
Why is only his pipe banned?
Sea breeze, feel the sea breeze
Sea breeze, uuhu
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Send the smoke from the pipe to the head
Light it, pull it, hold it, pass it
Indian wants pipe, Indian wants to make smoke
In the penitentiary an "outlaw Indian"
Met the real criminals
Entering, leaving and returning
Each time more dangerous for society
Hey, buddy, there's a lottery going on in prison
To reduce overcrowding
Every month some prisoners have to be executed
And this time the Indian was one of the chosen ones
And he tried to calm the other prisoners
"Hold on, let's smoke a little peace pipe"
They started to laugh
And beat the old Indian until they couldn't anymore
And before he died he thought
"This tribe is too backward
They want to end violence
But peace is against the law and the law is against peace"
And the Indian's pipe was still banned
But if you want to buy it, it's easier than bread
Nowadays it is sold
By the same criminals who killed the old Indian in prison
Sea breeze, feel the sea breeze
Sea breeze, uuhu
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Send the smoke from the pipe to the head
Light it, pull it, hold it, pass it
Indian wants pipe, Indian wants to make smoke
Sea breeze, feel the sea breeze
Sea breeze, uuhu
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Feel the sea breeze
Sea breeze
Indian wants pipe, Indian wants to make smoke
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Feel the sea breeze,
Light it, pull it, hold it, pass it (uuhu)
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Feel the sea breeze
Sea breeze
Indian wants pipe, Indian wants to make smoke
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Send the smoke from the pipe to the head
Light it, pull it, hold it, pass it
Indian wants pipe, Indian wants to make smoke
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Send the smoke from the pipe to the head
Light it, pull it, hold it, pass it
Indian wants pipe, Indian wants to make smoke
Erase the smoke from the revolver, from the pistol
Send the smoke from the pipe to the head
