English Translation

Quando os raios do Sol da manhã

When the rays of the morning sun

Entram por minha janela

Enter through my window

E as flores da primavera

And the flowers of spring

Convidam-me pra sair

Invite me to go out


Correndo com satisfação

Running with satisfaction

Vou sentindo o cheiro da relva

I feel the smell of the grass

Vejo a neblina cobrindo a selva

I see the mist covering the jungle

Do sertão onde eu nasci

From the backcountry where I was born


Então vou à cachoeira

So I go to the waterfall

Ver a água cair lá da serra

See the water falling from the mountains

Se quebrando sobre as pedras

Breaking on the rocks

Crescendo um branco véu

Growing a white veil


Inundando toda a natureza

Flooding all of nature

O seu chuá que não cansa

Its splash that never tires

Formando cortina mansa

Forming a gentle curtain

Parecem nuvens no céu

They look like clouds in the sky


O cantar dos passarinhos

The singing of the birds

Sufoca qualquer tristeza

Suffocates any sadness

Pois só existe pureza

Because there is only purity

E muita sonoridade

And a lot of sonority


Canta o rouxinol na ramada

The nightingale sings in the branches

Na areia corre o juriti

The dove runs on the sand

O homem que nasce aqui

The man born here

Ausente morre de saudade

Absent, dies of longing


Quisera através dos meus versos

I would like through my verses

Mostrar para o mundo inteiro

Show to the whole world

O cenário brasileiro

The Brazilian scenery

Do sertão simples e belo

From the simple and beautiful backcountry


E falar com muito gosto

And speak with great pleasure

As tardes do mês de agosto

The afternoons of the month of August

São belezas que enfeitam

Are beauties that adorn

Meu Brasil verde e amarelo

My green and yellow Brazil
