Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Nós não vamos nos dispersar

We won't scatter

Juntos, é tão bom saber

Togetherness, it's so good to know

Que passado o tormento

That past torment

Será nosso esse chão...

This land will be ours...


Água, dona da vida

Water, owner of life

Ouve essa prece tão comovida

Hear this prayer so moved

Chega, brinca na fonte

Come, play in the fountain

Desce do monte, vem como amiga

Come down from the mountain, come as a friend


Te quero água de beber

I want you, water to drink

Um copo d'água

A glass of water

Marola mansa da maré

Gentle ripple of the tide

Mulher amada

Beloved woman

Te quero orvalho toda manhã

I want you, dew every morning


Terra, olha essa terra

Earth, look at this land

Raça valente, gente sofrida

Brave race, suffering people

Chama, tem que ter feira

Flame, there must be a market

Tem que ter festa, vamos pra vida

There must be a celebration, let's go to life


Te quero terra pra plantar, ah

I want you, earth to plant, ah

Te quero verde

I want you green

Te quero casa pra morar, ah

I want you home to live in, ah

Te quero rede

I want you hammock

Depois da chuva o Sol da manhã

After the rain, the morning Sun


Chega de mágoa

No more resentment

Chega de tanto penar

No more suffering so much


Canto e o nosso canto

I sing and our song

Joga no tempo uma semente

Throws a seed into time

Gente, olha essa gente

People, look at these people

Olha essa gente, olha essa gente

Look at these people, look at these people


Te quero água de beber

I want you, water to drink

Um copo d'água

A glass of water

Marola mansa da maré

Gentle ripple of the tide

Mulher amada

Beloved woman


Te quero terra pra plantar

I want you, earth to plant

Te quero verde, hum

I want you green, hum

Te quero casa pra morar

I want you home to live in

Te quero rede

I want you hammock


Depois da chuva o Sol da manhã

After the rain, the morning Sun

Canto (eu canto) e o nosso canto (canto)
