Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Ô Peneirou, peneirou, peneirou gavião

Oh, sifted, sifted, sifted hawk

Nos ares para voar

In the air to fly

Tu belisca mais não come gavião

You peck but don't eat, hawk

Da massa que eu peneirar

From the dough that I sift

Da massa que eu peneirar

From the dough that I sift

Da massa que eu peneirar

From the dough that I sift


Gavião bicho malvado

Hawk, wicked creature

É tinhoso e aventureiro

It's cunning and adventurous

Mas da minha fina massa

But from my fine dough

Gavião não vê o cheiro

The hawk doesn't smell


Gavião passou voando

The hawk flew by

E na massa quis pousar

And wanted to land in the dough

Filozinha gritou

Filozinha shouted

Gavião foi-se a voar

The hawk flew away


Quem tiver sua fina massa

Whoever has their fine dough

Não se dê por esquecido

Don't consider yourself forgotten

Pois se eu deixo a minha à toa

Because if I leave mine unattended

Gavião tinha comido

The hawk would have eaten
