狂欢时间 Rio Carnival Time

Hi everybody,

we have been talking about “Time” words and instead of talking about Christmas time ,I thought we could listen to one of the most famous songs about the Carnival time in Brazil,Rio de Janeiro

“Carnival Time” is a period of time when people dance and celebrate. – Luiz Bonfa wrote this song about it – the song is called “The morning of the Carnival”

 

You can watch it played expertly,in this video by clicking HERE.

Here are the words:

The Morning of the Carnival

I sing to the sun in the sky

I’ll sing while the sun rises high

Carnival time is here

Magical time of year

and as the time draws near,dreams lift my heart.

 

I’ll sing while I play my guitar

I’ll cling to this dream from afar

Will true love come my way on this Carnival day?

Or will love stay in my heart?

 

(next is singing these words in Portuguese – as she sings you can read the above words to the tune)

Will true love come my way on this Carnival day?

Or will I be alone with my dreams?
