Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Noite Inteira by Pitty from Portuguese to English.

Leaving home ready for the fight is law

Friendly fire's a truce before dawn

The trumpet sounded; it wasn't tea, I know

There'd be no gentleness at all

Step with confidence on this new ground

The takeover happens just like that

It's war with no quarter

A clash with reason

To belong and be on every corner

On every corner

People gather to make revolution

People gather to talk nonsense

Who you hang with

Who lends you a hand

See, the street's for a lifetime

If on the flag there's still

Any heart

When it beats

It bleeds red

And on the slopes

To go up there's always a no

Downhill goes just like that

All night long

Defying the norm of what should be

Let home be the world out there

Sometimes what counts is argument

There's time to dance all night long

All night long

People gather to make revolution

People gather to talk nonsense

Who you hang with

Who lends you a hand

See, the street's for a lifetime

If on the flag there's still

Any heart

When it beats

It bleeds red

And on the slopes

To go up there's always a no

Downhill goes just like that

All night long

People gather to make revolution

People gather to talk nonsense

Who you hang with

Who lends you a hand

See, the street's for a lifetime

If on the flag there's still

Any heart

When it beats

It bleeds red

And on the slopes

To go up there's always a no

Downhill 'abajo' is like that

All night long

I don't ask you to agree

Don't stop me from speaking

I get that you disagree

Don't expect me to shut up

Respect existence

Or expect resistance

Respect existence

Or expect resistance

I don't ask you to agree

Don't stop me from speaking

Respect existence

Or expect resistance

I don't ask you to agree

Don't stop me from speaking

I get that you disagree

Existence

SONG MEANING

Picture a humid Brazilian night where drums echo along cobblestone streets. Pitty joins forces with reggae icon Lazzo Matumbi to paint that restless scene: friends leave home "prontas pra peleja" (ready for battle), trumpets blare, and the city turns into a living battlefield of ideas. Every corner is a new territory to conquer with rhythm, protest, and dance. Climbing the steep hills of Salvador means resistance, while sliding downhill feels rebellious and free. The chorus reminds us that crowds gather both to spark revolutions and to chat nonsense, proving that community is messy, loud, and beautifully human.

At the heart of “Noite Inteira” is a rallying cry: “Respeita a existência ou espere resistência” – respect existence or expect resistance. The song celebrates standing your ground, choosing your companions wisely, and knowing that the streets, the flag, and even the beat of a heart can bleed red with passion. It invites you to defy rules, argue, dance, and shout your truth until sunrise. In other words, it is an anthem for anyone who refuses to be silent, embracing the power of collective voice all night long.
