Sina de cigarra

I was born with a cicada's fate
Wherever I go, there's a party.
(chorus repeats)

Hey, hey, hey
I was born to sing, I will sing
(chorus repeats)

The mason lives by the plumb line
The bee by the nectar
The fisherman by the hook...
The champion of the cup
The street vendor at the square
And I sing forró.
(chorus repeats)
