Bola Pra Frente Lyrics in English Maria Rita
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Bola Pra Frente by Maria Rita from Portuguese to English.
Dança nessa corda bamba
Dance on this tightrope
Sem cair senão você descamba
Without falling, otherwise you'll go downhill
Pra unir a corda e a caçamba
To unite the rope and the dumpster
Percebi que o mundo é uma ciranda
I realized the world is a merry-go-round
Pra seguir com toda a sua crença
To continue with all your belief
Insistir fazendo a diferença
Persist in making a difference
Aplaudir mas com sinceridade
Applaud, but with sincerity
Não fugir dessa realidade
Don't run away from this reality
Encarar a vida de frente
Face life head-on
Mostrar pra essa gente que vai ser diferente
Show these people that it will be different
Vai melhorar, rebola pra frente
It will get better, shake it forward
Depende da gente a nossa corrente não pode quebrar
It's up to us, our chain cannot break
Quem vive seguro só anda no escuro
Whoever lives safely only walks in the dark
Não vê o futuro se aproximar
Doesn't see the future approaching
Acerta o seu passo, vem nesse compasso
Get your step right, come to this beat
E manda o fracasso pra lá
And send failure away
Deixa clarear que a luz do dia vai brilhar
Let it brighten, for the light of day will shine
Quem tem fé vai na fé acredita na vida
Whoever has faith goes with faith, believes in life
Deixa clarear que a luz do dia vai brilhar
Let it brighten, for the light of day will shine
Quem tem fé vai na fé acredita na vida
Whoever has faith goes with faith, believes in life
Dança nessa corda bamba
Dance on this tightrope
Sem cair senão você descamba
Without falling, otherwise you'll go downhill
Pra unir a corda e a caçamba
To unite the rope and the dumpster
Percebi que o mundo é uma ciranda
I realized the world is a merry-go-round
Pra seguir com toda a sua crença
To continue with all your belief
Insistir fazendo a diferença
Persist in making a difference
Aplaudir mas com sinceridade
Applaud, but with sincerity
Não fugir dessa realidade
Don't run away from this reality
Encarar a vida de frente
Face life head-on
Mostrar pra essa gente que vai ser diferente
Show these people that it will be different
Vai melhorar, rebola pra frente
It will get better, shake it forward
Depende da gente a nossa corrente não pode quebrar
It's up to us, our chain cannot break
Quem vive seguro só anda no escuro
Whoever lives safely only walks in the dark
Não vê o futuro se aproximar
Doesn't see the future approaching
Acerta o seu passo, vem nesse compasso
Get your step right, come to this beat
E manda o fracasso pra lá
And send failure away
E deixa clarear que a luz do dia vai brilhar
And let it brighten, for the light of day will shine
Quem tem fé vai na fé acredita na vida
Whoever has faith goes with faith, believes in life
Deixa clarear que a luz do dia vai brilhar
Let it brighten, for the light of day will shine
Quem tem fé vai na fé acredita na vida
Whoever has faith goes with faith, believes in life
Deixa clarear que a luz do dia vai brilhar
Let it brighten, for the light of day will shine
Quem tem fé vai na fé acredita na vida
Whoever has faith goes with faith, believes in life
Deixa clarear que a luz do dia vai brilhar
Let it brighten, for the light of day will shine
Quem tem fé vai na fé acredita na vida
Whoever has faith goes with faith, believes in life
Dança nessa corda bamba
Dance on this tightrope
Dança nessa corda bamba
Dance on this tightrope

descamba — tumble down / fall into disarray
Descamba is a vivid and somewhat informal verb that means to 'tumble down' or 'fall into disarray'. It suggests a loss of control and a negative turn of events.
In the song, Maria Rita sings, "Sem cair senão você descamba" (Without falling, otherwise you'll tumble down). It's used to warn against losing balance in life, implying that if you don't stay steady, things can quickly go wrong. This word adds a playful yet cautionary tone to the lyrics.
