Aquarela do Brasil
Gal Costa
Watercolor of Brazil
Brazil, my Brazilian Brazil
My mischievous mulatto
I will sing you in my verses
Brazil, samba that gives
Swing that makes you sway
Brazil of my love
Land of our Lord
Brazil for me
For me, for me
Ah, open the curtain of the past
Take the black mother from the cerrado
Put the Congo king in the congado
Brazil, for me
Let the troubadour sing again
The melancholic light of the Moon
Every song of my love
I want to see that lady walking
Through the halls dragging
Her lace dress
Brazil for me
For me, for me
Brazil, good and tasty land
Of the charming brunette
With indiscreet gaze
Brazil, samba that gives
Swing that makes you sway
Brazil of my love
Land of our Lord
Brazil for me
For me, for me
Oh, that coconut tree
Where I tie my hammock
On clear moonlit nights
Brazil for me
Ah, listen to these murmuring fountains
Where I quench my thirst
And where the Moon comes to play
Ah, this beautiful and tanned Brazil
Is my Brazilian Brazil
Land of samba and pandeiro
Brazil for me, for me, Brazil
Brazil for me, for me, Brazil, Brazil
