Tudo em vorta é só beleza

Sol de Abril e a mata em frô

Num vendo a luz, ai, canta de dor

Not seeing the light, oh, sings in pain

Pra ele assim, ai, cantá mió

Mil vez a sina de uma gaiola

A thousand times the fate of a cage

Desde que o céu, ai, pudesse oiá

Desde que o céu, ai, pudesse oiá

É tão triste como o teu

Também roubaro o meu amor

Que era a luz, ai, dos óios meus
