Translation

Ó, ó dona Chiquinha

Oh, oh, Mrs. Chiquinha

Passarinho deu no ninho

A little bird landed in the nest

Na roça da fazendinha

In the field of the little farm

Ó, ó dona Chiquinha

Oh, oh, Mrs. Chiquinha

Toca os passarinhos

Play with the little birds

Senão come a canjiquinha

Or else they'll eat the cornmeal


Ó, ó dona Chiquinha

Oh, oh, Mrs. Chiquinha

Passarinho deu no ninho

A little bird landed in the nest

Na roça da fazendinha

In the field of the little farm

Ó, ó dona Chiquinha

Oh, oh, Mrs. Chiquinha

Toca os passarinhos

Play with the little birds

Senão come a canjiquinha

Or else they'll eat the cornmeal


Passarinho bateu asa

The bird flapped its wings

Na beira do caminho

On the edge of the path

Voou, voou, voou

Flew, flew, flew

E foi pousar lá no moinho

And landed there at the mill


Fiquei só espiando

I stayed just watching

O que fazia os passarinhos

What the little birds were doing

Pegava os grão de milho

They picked up grains of corn

E carregava pro seu ninho

And carried them to their nest


Ó, ó dona Chiquinha

Oh, oh, Mrs. Chiquinha

Passarinho deu no ninho

A little bird landed in the nest

Na roça da fazendinha

In the field of the little farm

Ó, ó dona Chiquinha

Oh, oh, Mrs. Chiquinha

Toca os passarinhos

Play with the little birds

Senão come a canjiquinha

Or else they'll eat the cornmeal


Passarinho bateu asa

The bird flapped its wings

Na beira do caminho

On the edge of the path

Voou, voou, voou

Flew, flew, flew

E foi pousar lá no moinho

And landed there at the mill


Fiquei só espiando

I stayed just watching

O que fazia os passarinhos

What the little birds were doing

Pegava os grão de milho

They picked up grains of corn

E carregava pro seu ninho

And carried them to their nest


Ó, ó dona Chiquinha

Oh, oh, Mrs. Chiquinha

Passarinho deu no ninho

A little bird landed in the nest

Na roça da fazendinha

In the field of the little farm

Ó, ó dona Chiquinha

Oh, oh, Mrs. Chiquinha

Toca os passarinhos
