Capim

(original)
Capim do vale
Vara de goiabeira
Na beira do rio
Paro para me benzer
Mãe d'Água sai um pouquinho
Desse seu leito-ninho
Que eu tenho um carinho
Para lhe fazer
Pinheiros do Paraná
Que bom tê-los
Como areia no mar
Mangas do Pará
Pitangueiras da Borborema
A Ema gemeu
No tronco do Juremá
Cacique perdeu
Mas lutou que eu vi
Jari não é Deus
Mas acham que sim
Que fim levou o amor?
Plantei um pé de fuló
Deu capim
(translation)
Valley grass
guava stick
On the riverside
I stop to bless myself
Mãe d'Água comes out a little
From your nest bed
That I have a affection
to make you
Pinheiros do Paraná
nice to have them
Like sand in the sea
Mangas do Pará
Borborema's Pitangueiras
Emma moaned
On the trunk of Juremá
chief lost
But he fought what I saw
Jari is not God
But they think so
What end did love take?
I planted a foot of fuló
gave grass
