Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Que é que tu vê no tambor, meu nego

What do you see in the drum, my dear

Olha bem prá mim

Look closely at me

Danço com a alma

I dance with my soul

Voltada prá ti

Turned towards you

Cantando, sorrindo

Singing, smiling

Fazendo gesto

Making gestures

Todo mundo acha lindo

Everyone thinks it's beautiful

Toque de caixa é de arrepiar

Toque de caixa sends shivers down the spine

Minha dança também te arrepia

My dance also gives you chills

Espera eu rodopiar

Wait for me to spin around

No batuque desse teu tambor...

In the beat of your drum...

Meu cheiro de flor é mal-intencionado

My floral scent is mischievous

Passei até flor do cerrado e jasmim

I even passed through cerrado flowers and jasmine

Misturando com o nosso suor

Mixing with our sweat

Na boca um toque de carmim

A touch of carmine on my lips

Se confunde com teu sabor

It blends with your taste

Na dança um toque de pluma

In the dance, a touch of feather

Que voa ao toque do teu tambor

That flies at the touch of your drum
