Petrolina-Juazeiro(original) |
| Na margem do São Francisco, nasceu a beleza |
| E a natureza ela conservou |
| Jesus abençoou com sua mão divina |
| Pra não morrer de saudade, vou voltar pra Petrolina |
| Do outro lado do rio tem uma cidade |
| Que em minha mocidade eu visitava todo dia |
| Atravessava a ponte ai que alegria |
| Chegava em Juazeiro, Juazeiro da Bahia |
| Hoje eu me lembro que nos tempos de criança |
| Esquisito era a carranca e o apito do trem |
| Mas achava lindo quando a ponte levantava |
| E o vapor passava num gostoso vai e vem |
| Petrolina, Juazeiro, Juazeiro, Petrolina |
| Todas duas eu acho uma coisa linda |
| Eu gosto de Juazeiro e adoro Petrolina |
| (translation) |
| On the bank of the São Francisco, the beauty was born |
| And nature she kept |
| Jesus blessed with his divine hand |
| So I don't miss it, I'm going back to Petrolina |
| On the other side of the river there is a city |
| That in my youth I visited every day |
| I crossed the bridge, what a joy |
| Arrived in Juazeiro, Juazeiro da Bahia |
| Today I remember that when I was a child |
| Weird was the frown and the train whistle |
| But I thought it was beautiful when the bridge lifted |
| And the steam passed in a pleasant back-and-forth |
| Petrolina, Juazeiro, Juazeiro, Petrolina |
| Both I think it's a beautiful thing |
| I like Juazeiro and love Petrolina |
