Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Esse par de olhos mansos

This pair of gentle eyes

jaboticaba madura

Ripe jabuticaba

Dos campos a liberdade

Freedom from the fields

Dos anjos tem a candura

Has the innocence of angels

Tem um néctar precioso

Has a precious nectar

O doce da rapadura

The sweetness of rapadura

No meu peito feito cachoeira

In my chest, like a waterfall

Com sabor de água pura

Tasting like pure water


É a salvação da minha lavoura

It's the salvation of my crops

contra seca e geada

Against drought and frost

Vagalume que clareia

A firefly that illuminates

as curvas da madrugada

The curves of dawn

Canto forte da araponga

The strong song of the araponga

Bem no meio da roçada

Right in the middle of the crop

Tá dizendo pros dragões

It's telling the dragons

Baixa o fogo dos canhões

To lower the fire of cannons

Pois quem anda sob esses olhos

Because those who walk under these eyes

não tem medo de nada

Are not afraid of anything
