Ronaldo Song

From Bento Ribeiro's humble abode
A football dream quietly glowed
Nélio Jr., his brother, watched him soar
As Sônia's little striker had begun to score
Flamengo's bus fare, too steep to pay
Fate had other plans that pivotal day
Jairzinho's wisdom led him to Cruzeiro
Where his journey began from zero to hero

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh

R9, the buck-toothed smile that lit up the night
Blazing through defenses, an unstoppable sight
Ronaldo, the name that echoes through time
King of the pitch in his golden prime

At Barcelona, 47 goals in just 49 games
Arms outstretched, his trademark he'd claim
His Inter teammate, Djorkaeff, would say
"We'd stop to watch him train each day"
At the Bernabéu, standing ovation achieved
Even United fans by his skills were deceived
In Milan's red and black, ninety-nine on his back
A number as unique as his goal-scoring knack

Do futsal ao campo, sempre fenomenal
Ronaldo, um nome que se tornou imortal
Chuteira dourada, artilheiro fatal
Ronaldo é sinônimo de futebol total
Com Rivaldo e Ronaldinho, trio de ouro
Na Copa de 2002, um verdadeiro tesouro
Rei das áreas, ídolo da nação
Seu legado é pura inspiração

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh

R9, the buck-toothed smile that lit up the night
Blazing through defenses, an unstoppable sight
Ronaldo, the name that echoes through time
King of the pitch in his golden prime
