|
| De madrugada galo cantou
| Early in the morning the rooster crowed
|
| E o sol brilhou
| And the sun shone
|
| E a morena, em meus braços, então descansou
| And the brunette, in my arms, then rested

| O que será este batuque feiticeiro?
| What will this sorcerer drumming be?
|
| Este é o samba com viola e com pandeiro
| This is samba with viola and with tambourine
