Raízes do Nordeste
Mastruz Com Leite
Roots of the Northeast
In my backcountry there is everything
Good that one can imagine
There's a sun shining
Where the sabiá sings
There's kindness in the eyes
Of a hardworking man
Who wears a straw hat
With humility, yes sir
There's kindness in the eyes
Of a hardworking man
Who wears a straw hat
With humility, yes sir
In my backcountry xique-xique
It's the flag of the northeast
There's forró, rodeo, xote
Baião from east to west
There's kindness in the eyes
Of a hardworking man
Who wears a straw hat
With humility, yes sir
There's kindness in the eyes
Of a hardworking man
Who wears a straw hat
With humility, yes sir
But turn off the oil lamp
Leave the lantern
Lantern of Virgulino
Don't touch it
Have you thought about the commotion
That can happen here
If the lantern goes out
Things will change...
