Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Bate caixa de boi do arari

Arari's ox drum beats

Pra chamar lá no retiro grande

To call over at the big retreat

Cavalinhos da crina de ouro

Little horses with golden manes

Flor do campo e o zezus viana

Field flower and Zezus Viana

Piticaia me chama o nanã

Piticaia calls me to Nanã

Madureira onde o jazo campeia

Madureira where the jazo reigns

Tem jardim encantando pra ver

There's an enchanting garden to see

Entre flores e águas barrentas

Among flowers and muddy waters


Balança flor vai rompendo a madrugada

Swinging flower breaking the dawn

Balança flor é cachoeira prateada

Swinging flower is a silver waterfall


Correnteza do tempo me leva

The current of time takes me

Pra brincar no luar da jaci

To play under Jaci's moonlight

Jurandir, lino e muríbeca

Jurandir, Lino, and Muríbeca

São poemas no vento bailando

Are poems dancing in the wind

Meu cordão pelas ruas da ilha

My procession through the island's streets

A barreira do mar tão bonita

The beautiful sea barrier

Vai ficar mais bonita e serena

Will become even more beautiful and serene

Se eu cantar e dança na balança

If I sing and dance on the swing
