Alagoas

Oh Maceió
It's three women for one man
Oh Maceió
It's three women for one man
I was baptized in the lighthouse chapel
Main church of Santa Rita,
Maceió
I was baptized in the lighthouse chapel
Main church of Santa Rita,
Maceió
But it was along the road that I rode the mule
Ready to graduate from the school of nature
If someone asks me
I have nothing to say
Because for me to fulfill myself
I need to die
But it was along the road that I rode the mule
Ready to graduate from the school of nature
If someone asks me
I have nothing to say
Because for me to fulfill myself I need to die
You gave me the freedom
To choose my destiny
And when I miss you
I can cry for you
Don't you see, my motherland
That I am lamenting
It's because I was condemned to live off what I sing
A-la, a-la, ala, Alagoas
A-la, a-la, ala, Alagoas
I was baptized in the lighthouse chapel...
