É Noite de São João

Go, go, go, I'll play in this circle
Go, go, go, in this circle it's so good

The whole starry sky
Clear moon and the crowd
Today is a day of celebration
It's Saint John's night

Put wood in the bonfire
To set off fireworks and rockets
Boy goes to the kitchen
Brings the liter of mulled wine

I saw the bonfire burn
I saw the day break
I saw the balloon rise
At the 'arraiá' party

Boy goes to the field
Cracks the corn to roast
Bring corn cake, hominy
To cheer up the people
