Saudade de Itapoã
Dori Caymmi
Longing for Itapoã
Coconut tree of Itapoã, coconut tree
Sand of Itapoã, sand
Brunette from Itapoã, brunette
Longing for Itapoã leaves me
Oh wind that sings in the leaves
At the top of the coconut trees
Oh wind that ripples the waters
I've never had such longing
Bring me good news from that land every morning
And throw a flower in the lap of a brunette from Itapoã
Coconut tree of Itapoã, coconut tree
Sand of Itapoã, sand
Brunette from Itapoã, brunette
Longing for Itapoã leaves me
Leaves me, leaves me...
