Meu povo, preste atenção
Na roda que eu te fiz
Quero mostrar a quem vem
Aquilo que o povo diz

Posso falar, pois eu sei
Eu tiro os outros por mim
Quando almoço, não janto
E quando canto é assim

Agora vou divertir
Agora vou começar
Quero ver quem vai sair
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Não é obrigado a me ouvir
Quem não quiser escutar

Quem tem dinheiro no mundo
Quanto mais tem, quer ganhar
E a gente que não tem nada
Fica pior do que está

Seu moço, tenha vergonha
Acabe a descaração
Deixe o dinheiro do pobre
E roube outro ladrão

Agora vou divertir
Agora vou prosseguir
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Quero ver quem vai sair
Não é obrigado a escutar
Quem não quiser me ouvir

Se morre o rico e o pobre
Enterre o rico e eu
Quero ver quem que separa
O pó do rico do meu

Se lá embaixo há igualdade
Aqui em cima há de haver
Quem quer ser mais do que é
Um dia há de sofrer

Agora vou divertir
Agora vou prosseguir
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Quero ver quem vai sair
Não é obrigado a escutar
Quem não quiser me ouvir

Seu moço, tenha cuidado
Com sua exploração
Se não lhe dou de presente
A sua cova no chão

Quero ver quem vai dizer
Quero ver quem vai mentir
Quero ver quem vai negar
Aquilo que eu disse aqui

Agora vou divertir
Agora vou terminar
Quero ver quem vai sair
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Não é obrigado a me ouvir
Quem não quiser escutar

Agora vou terminar
Agora vou discorrer
Quem sabe tudo e diz logo
Fica sem nada a dizer

Quero ver quem vai voltar
Quero ver quem vai fugir
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Quero ver quem vai trair

Por isso eu fecho essa roda
A roda que eu te fiz
A roda que é do povo
Onde se diz o que diz

@julianabenare : Hi ! Yes, you really are cool! Coolness is not going to the club every Saturday night ;) Thank you so much for your accurate translation. I already included it in the info-section. (I hope that is okay!) Note that I modified a bit the last phrase (which was not understandable in English) ... is the meaning conserved in my version ?? Did you know the translation of Joel Sattler ? (from : wattpad . com /387295? p=43 a lbre translation, but correct?) muito obrigado, Juliana !

Ricardo Carvalho

Here's just an attempt to translate it: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2493741/Roda-attempted-translation.txt The way I did it the original sentence is preceded by +, the translation by - and an explanation by =, there's also some words that I put between [] for helping with the meaning. See if this helps.

3º Part: Now I ask you Now I will go on Want to see who will stay Want to see who will exit It’s not obligated to listen to me Who does not want to hear And the rich dies as the poor Bury the rich and I Want to see who can separate The dust of the rich and mine If there is equality underground Up, in here, there is, there must have Who wants to be more than he is One day will suffer
