Ponta de areia (Vinheta)(original) |
| Ponta de areia ponto final |
| Da Bahia-Minas estrada natural |
| Que ligava Minas ao porto ao mar |
| Caminho de ferro mandaram arrancar |
| Velho maquinista com seu boné Lembra do povo alegre que vinha cortejar |
| Maria fumaç a não canta mais |
| Para moç as flores janelas e quintais |
| Na praç a vazia um grito um oi |
| Casas esquecidas viúvas nos portais |
| (translation) |
| End point sand tip |
| From Bahia-Minas natural road |
| Which connected Minas to the port to the sea |
| Railroad ordered to be started |
| Old train driver with his cap Remembers the happy people who came to court |
| Maria smoke no longer sings |
| For girls flowers windows and backyards |
| In the empty square, a shout, um, hi |
| Forgotten houses widowed in the portals |
