Olha a Pisada
Luiz Gonzaga
Look at the Footstep
"Hey, lace-making woman
Hey, lace-making woman
Don't cry for me
If you sob, go to the bar.
That's how the Lampião's men used to sing
Dancing and xaxando in the backcountry's forró
Entering a city when leaving a village
Singing the lace-maker, they danced in the xaxado
I, who grew up in the footstep
Watching the cangaceiros of the footstep
Dance successfully in the footstep
Of Lampião
Look at the footstep. tum tum tum tum (3x)
Look at the footstep
Of Lampião
He was born in Pernambuco
There in Sergipe he died
His reign he didn't give to anyone
But the xaxado
Has to be mine
Has
to be mine
Has
to be mine"
