Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Metade do ano se põe a subir

Half of the year starts to rise

A outra metade se põe a descer

The other half starts to descend

E conta a história do povo daqui

And tells the story of the people from here

De tão castigado ele tá pra sumir

So punished it's about to disappear


Oxum, não leva embora

Oxum, don't take away

Esse rio que você nos deu

This river that you've given us

Pra chegar, pra plantar, pra colher

To arrive, to plant, to harvest

Pra nadar, pra pescar

To swim, to fish

Oxum, transforma em lendas

Oxum, turns into legends

Encanta a areia e limpa o fundo do rio

Enchants the sand and cleans the riverbed


O rio das curvas, das barranqueiras

The river of curves, of banks

Dos seringais

Of rubber plantations

Oiá trás pros quintais chuva!

Oiá brings rain to the backyards!
