Criança do Nordeste

Child of the northeast, this song is for you
Child of the northeast, this song is for you

I want to thank Christ for the children of Brazil
Especially those from the backlands, who I hold in my heart
For this dear people who live life in suffering
Oh folks, I want to learn how to speak your language
Because I admire with affection, to this people I will dedicate
This song that I now sing, my love I will show

They are loved and remembered by the people of the Lord
They are children that Brazil did not calculate their worth (2x)

But we love the children of the backlands
And we offer the warmth of our hands
We also know that we are all together
United by the power of the song
