Carlo Porta (June 15, 1775 – January 5, 1821) was an Italian poet, the most famous writer in Milanese (the central dialect of the Western Lombard language).
Porta was born in Milan to Giuseppe Porta and Violante Gottieri, a merchant family. He studied in Monza until 1792 and then in the Seminario of Milan. In 1796, the Napoleonic Wars pushed Porta to find a job in Venice (where one of his brothers lived) and he remained there until 1799.
From 1804 until his death, Porta worked as government employee, although he would have been pleased to keep on studying. In 1806, he married to Vincenza Prevosti.
He died in Milan in January 1821 from an attack of gout and was buried in the Church of San Gregorio. His tomb was subsequently lost, but his tombstone Is still conserved in the vault of San Gregorio church, in Milan.
Porta began to write poems in 1790, although few of them were published before 1810. In 1804-1805 he worked at a Milanese translation of the Divine Comedy, which he, however, left unfinished. In these years the progressive group that formed round him and called themselves the "Cameretta Portiana" included Giuseppe Bossi, who painted a group portrait of four Amici della Cameretta Portiana.
Quem tá sem cueca?
Quem tá sem cueca aí?
Quem tá sem cueca,levante a mão (4x)
Eu gosto de testuda,gosto de perereca
Fizemos uma montagem pro bonde dos sem-cueca
Eles não usam cueca só para impressionar
Quando toca a sua montagem,eles botam pra balançar
Balança, balança, balança, balança, balança, balança, balança (4x)
Quem tá sem sutiã,levante a mão (4x)
Eu canto essa parada
E eu canto sem preconceito
Para todas as mulheres do baile
Agora balance os peitos
Balança, balança, balança, balança, balança, balança, balança os peitos (4x)
Quem tá sem cueca,levante a mão
Quem tá sem sutiã,levante a mão
(3x)
É falta de educação
Mas é um bagulho engraçado
Para todos os homens do baile
Vamos coçar o saco
Coça, coça, coça, coça o saco agora
Coça, coça, coça, coça o saco
(2x)
As mulheres desse baile
Ficaram com inveja
Agora é a vez delas
De coçarem a perereca
Coça, coça, coça, coça a perereca (3x)
