English Translation
Menino vem brincar no mar
Come, boy, play in the sea
Oh mar vem lavar pe de menino
Oh sea, come wash the boy's feet
Menino vem brincar no mar
Come, boy, play in the sea
Oh mar vem lavar pe de menino
Oh sea, come wash the boy's feet
Eu vi as ondas brincando de pega-pega
I saw the waves playing tag
Levar as aguas do riacho cristalino
Taking the waters of the crystal-clear stream
Eu vi menino vim brincar no mar
I saw the boy come to play in the sea
Oh mar vem lavar pe de menino
Oh sea, come wash the boy's feet
Menino vem brincar no mar
Come, boy, play in the sea
Oh mar vem lavar pe de menino. bis
Oh sea, come wash the boy's feet. Repeat
As gaivotas vao fazendo suas rondas
The seagulls are making their rounds
O sol levanta vento leste me incendeia
The sun rises, east wind ignites me
No chao da praia vou guardar a minha raia
On the beach floor, I'll keep my kite
E construir o seu castelo de areia
And build your sandcastle
Menino vem brincar no mar
Come, boy, play in the sea
Oh mar vem lavar pe de menino. bis
Oh sea, come wash the boy's feet. Repeat
