Coqueiro de Itapoã, coqueiro

Palm tree of Itapoã, palm tree

Areia de Itapoã, areia

Sand of Itapoã, sand

Morena de Itapoã, morena

Brown-skinned girl from Itapoã, brown-skinned girl

Saudade de Itapoã me deixa

Saudade of Itapoã, let me


Oh vento que faz cantiga nas folhas

Oh wind that sings in the leaves

No alto dos coqueirais

At the top of the coconut trees

Oh vento que ondula as águas

Oh wind that ripples the waters


Eu nunca tive saudade igual

I've never had saudade like this

Me traga boas notícias daquela terra toda manhã

Bring me good news from that land every morning


E joga uma flor no colo de uma morena de Itapoã

And throw a flower in the lap of a brown-skinned girl from Itapoã

Coqueiro de Itapoã, coqueiro

Palm tree of Itapoã, palm tree


Areia de Itapoã, areia

Morena de Itapoã, morena

Saudade de Itapoã me deixa

Saudade of Itapoã, let me

Me deixa, me deixa...

Let me, let me...
