Canção do Marinheiro (Cisne Branco)
Dalva de Oliveira
Sailor's Song (White Swan)
Like a white swan that on a moonlit night
Glides on a blue lake
My ship also floats
In the green seas, from north to south
Beautiful galley that on a dark night
Sails on an immense sea
Brings us memories of the beloved land
Of my homeland that I think of so much
Like a beautiful heron
Cutting through the air
Sailing under a beautiful indigo sky
My galley cuts through the rough seas
The green seas
The green seas of Brazil
How much joy the return brings
To our beloved homeland
With just pride our souls enveloped
Having fulfilled our mission
