Chapéu de Couro e Gratidão
Luiz Gonzaga
Leather Hat and Gratitude
That white accordion
That leather hat...
How beautiful Benito
Who is a poet and wants to see
How beautiful Benito
Poets like you
My white accordion
Color of the dreamer's peace
Dreams it's your piano
Playing things of love
My sun rises earlier
There's no time to stop
Breaks stones, burns the skin
Gives more strength in singing
How beautiful Benito (repeat)
My Northeastern voice
Will be universal sound
When we sing together
My baião in the capital
I clap, bring flowers
From Januário, the blessing
And in my leather hat
Nothing but gratitude
How beautiful Benito (repeat)
