Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Mãe-d'água, mãe-d'água

Mother of water, mother of water

Sereia da água doce

Mermaid of fresh water

Encanto de todas as florestas

Enchantment of all the forests

Formosa, formosa

Beautiful, beautiful

Perigo aos ouvidos

Danger to the ears

Dos homens que te ouvem

For men who hear you

Rainha da mata verde

Queen of the green forest

Parenta de lemanjá

Relative of Yemanjá

Rainha de todo azul

Queen of all blue


Quem fere teu sentimento

Who wounds your feelings

Mais tarde há de apagar

Will later extinguish

Se apaixona por teu canto

Falls in love with your song

Que se espalha pelo ar

That spreads through the air

Preparando o caminho

Preparing the path

Do prazer de te abraçar

For the pleasure of embracing you

Iara, sereia, mãe-d'água

Iara, mermaid, mother of water

Enfeitiça a quem te amar

Enchanting those who love you

Iara, iara

Iara, Iara

Leva o corpo desse homem

Take the body of this man

Que ninguém há de encontrar

That no one will ever find
