Toque de Berrante Lyrics Translation in English

O meu berrante tocou

My horn has sounded

O meu boi vai chegar

My ox is coming

Quero ver a galera

I want to see the crowd

Sorriso e cantando

Smiling and singing

Com braços luar

With arms of moonlight

Quero ver o meu povo

I want to see my people

Dançando e cantando

Dancing and singing

A toada do boi

The tune of the ox

Boi, boi, boi, boi, boi bumbá

Ox, ox, ox, ox, bumbá ox

Foi meu boi bumbá

It was my bumbá ox

Abra a roda vaqueiro

Open the circle cowboy

Que a festa meu povo

Because the party, my people

Já vai começar

Is about to begin

Chegou ou dança meu boi

Arrived, now dance my ox

Caprichoso chegou

Caprichoso has arrived

Levantando a bandeira

Raising the flag

Galera brilhou

The crowd shone
