Meu Cavaquinho
Edson Franco
My Little Ukulele
I have you, my dear
You're a material treasure
But you, my great friend
Have sentimental value
Your sound in my ear
Is so good, never a pain
It stirs up my emotions
It's so good, so natural
You keep me at peace with life
You're the one who inspires me
The remedy for my problems
That calms my anger
My faithful little buddy
Who goes by the name of ukulele
What a wonder! What a wonder!
What a wonder
To be able to play, to vent
Only you can truly understand me
When I'm bitter and down
You bring back the joy in my life
Ukulele, only you.
