Feira na beira do rio, doutor

Fair by the riverbank, doctor

Olha que tem tudo lá

Look, there's everything there

Feijão de corda, tem farinha e graviola

Cowpea, there's flour and soursop

E até moda de viola, pode acreditar

And even country music, you can believe


Feira na beira do rio, doutor

Fair by the riverbank, doctor

É mercado popular tem tambaqui, tucunaré, siri-patola

It's a popular market, there's tambaqui, peacock bass, and land crab

E todo tipo de tempero para temperar

And all kinds of spices to season


Tem umbu, meu sinhô

There's umbu, my sir

Siriguela, iaiá

Surinam cherry, miss

Milho verde, doutor

Green corn, doctor

Manga madura

Ripe mango


Quebra-queixo, sinhô

Quebra-queixo, sir

Goiabada, iaiá

Leva pimenta, tomate, taioba, canela e dendê

Take pepper, tomato, taioba, cinnamon, and palm oil

Tem carne seca, buchada de bode pra fortalecer

There's jerked beef, goat stomach to strengthen


Fumo de rolo, cachaça da roça pra comemorar

Rolling tobacco, countryside cachaça to celebrate

Leva essa flor no cabelo, morena, pra te perfumar

Take this flower in your hair, brunette, to perfume you


Leva tudo, leva um pouco

Take everything, take a bit

Leva o ralador de coco

Take the coconut grater

Meu sinhô, não tenho troco

My sir, I don't have change

Leva um coco pra ralar

Take a coconut to grate
