English Translation

Ô velho pescador

Oh old fisherman

Mão no leme, a navegar na proa

Hand on the helm, sailing at the bow

Nas ondas, nas ondas do mar

In the waves, in the waves of the sea

Ô velho pescador

Oh old fisherman

Mão na rede pra puxar

Hand on the net to pull

E agora, a aurora vai despontar

And now, dawn will break

Uma arrancada a mais

One more pull

A rede sobe mais

The net rises higher

São Pedro trouxe cheia

Saint Peter brought a full catch

Lá do mar, ô

From the sea, oh

Ô velho pescador

Oh old fisherman

Velas às bandas pra voltar

Sails to the sides to return

Que agora é hora

Because now is the time

De ir descansar

To go rest
