Ladeira da Preguiça

This slope
What slope is this?
This is the lazy slope
This slope
What slope is this?
This is the lazy slope

Laziness that I always had
To write to the family
And to send bills home
That this world is a wonder
And to know if the girl
Already counts the stars
And knows the second primer
And to know if the boy
Already sings songs
And no longer puts his hand on the handle

And to talk about the world I say nonsense
Fomenteira is an island
Where you arrive by boat, mom
Like there, on the island of fear
Like there, on the island of the friar
Like there, on the island of the tide
Like there, the salt flats of the daisies

This slope
What slope is this?
This is the lazy slope
It's from today
It's been since when
They tied the dog with sausage
