Canto De Carimbó

And I so alone, dark-skinned, and I so alone
I hope you come to me
In a carimbó song

In Marapanim, when the moon rises
It brings with it the sweat of the crowd
And in the vastness, the foot resounds strongly
Lifting the dust from the ground
Puts the carimbó in my heart

And I so alone, dark-skinned, and I so alone
I hope you come to me
In a carimbó song

I saw your petticoat flying through the sky
I tore, dark-skinned, my paper dream
We say like thread and spool
We spin like the carousel spins

And I so alone, dark-skinned, and I so alone
I hope you come to me
In a carimbó song
