lyrics

Puxa um banco, vem p’ra mesa, senta-se a jantar
Agradece à comida por alimentar
Não se esquece de cantar seus males espantar
E aproveita quando a chuva vem para a limpar

Sem relógio so se guia pelo ritmo lunar
E alcança cada vila com seu caminhar
Pé descalço sente a terra sem se magoar
Cada corte uma história para partilhar

Seus cabelos lisos longos esvoaçam no ar
Levanta a saia de roda e põe-se a dançar
Os seus olhos atrevidos sabem iluminar
Todo e qualquer coração a deambular

:: Translation to English ::

Pull a bench, come to the table, sit down to dinner
Give thanks for the food for feeding
Doesn’t forget to sing her evils away
And take advantage when the rain comes to clean her

Without a clock, is only guided by the lunar rhythm
And reach each village with her walk
Bare foot, feels the earth without getting hurt
Each cut a story to share

Her long straight hair flutters in the air
She lift the skirt and starts dancing
Her cheeky eyes know how to light
Any and every heart wandering
