Madalena of Jucu
Madalena, Madalena
You are my beloved
I will tell everyone
I will tell everyone
That all I want is you
I will tell everyone
I will tell everyone
That all I want is you
My mother doesn't want me
to go to my love's house
I will ask her
I will ask her
If she never dated
I will ask her
I will ask her
If she never dated
Oh! Madalena
My father doesn't want me to marry
But wants me to be a ladies' man
I will ask him
I will ask him
Why he got married
I will ask him
I will ask him
Why he got married
Madalena
I went to Vila Velha
Straight from Grajaú
Just to see Madalena
And hear the congo drums
There in Barra do Jucu
Just to see Madalena
And hear the congo drums
There in Barra do Jucu
Oh! Madalena
