Текст песни Astrud Gilberto - Berimbau

(Almost literal translation)

Whoever good ( people) - not betray
love that wants him well .
Anyone who has often said that he was leaving , (really ) does not go away ;
And so , the one who does not go away ( anywhere ) does not come.

Whoever is closed within itself,
die without loving anyone.
Money is the one who (s) does not,
earned by those who do not have ( money).
   
Good capoeirista never falls ,
But once it falls , it falls well.

2. Capoeira tells me that (if ) you've come ,
( it means ) come to fight!
Berimbau me confirms
( soon ) will fight with love ( the partner ) .
( And it's a bit ) sad , my friend.
