Balança de ouro
Arraial do Pavulagem
Golden Scale
Canoe takes me to see my beloved
who is in Cruzeiro
spinning and embroidering the cowhide
my flags
with golden threads and yellow ribbons.
I looked out the window and saw a star
passing swiftly in the sky of Guamá
for me a sacred and beautiful sign
it's my São João opening the gate.
Go my cheerful and beautiful battalion
our fortress is lovely to see.
The guys are a golden scale
this ox is a treasure
it's my sweetheart.
(Album: Arrastão do Pavulagem)
