Pacará, pacarazinho

Pacará, little pacara

Ferra o leme no tupé

Fix the helm in the tupé

No cambé da vela grande

In the cambé of the big sail

Vai nos caichos da maré

Go in the caichos of the tide

Vê que o mar não tem cabelo

See that the sea has no hair

E o vento não tem mulher

And the wind has no woman


Maré cheia, ô maré cheia, ô maré cheia

High tide, oh high tide, oh high tide

Ô maré cheia, tão cheia de mar...

Oh high tide, so full of sea...


Pacará, pacá, pacarazinho

Pacará, pacá, little pacara

Sou teu mestre professor

I am your master teacher

Arrepara os beiços d'água

Inspect the lips of water

Que lá fora se formou

That has formed out there

Toma tento no repique

Pay attention to the beat

Que o vento já repicou

That the wind has already played


Maré cheia...

High tide...


Olha a costa da vigia

Look at the coast of the watchtower

Pixuna de maresia, é vem

Pixuna of sea spray, it comes

Olha lá no quebra pote

Look there in the pot breaker

O solapo do bigode que ela tem

The mustache's lap she has

Arrepara a bujarrona

Inspect the bujarrona

Cambaquilha de patrona

Skirt of the patrona

Também, forga o cabo da bandeira

Also, secure the flag cable

No balanço, balanceia

In the sway, balance

Te enteia no bilim, belelém

Get into the bilim, Belém

Belém, Belém

Belém, Belém


Maré cheia...

High tide...
