Meu Pé de Serra, Minha Vida

How much I miss
My foot of Serra
From that land that used to be my place

Beautiful nights, where the moon enchants
And in a balcony hammock
I used to lie down

And by my side always in my company
The accordion that one day
My father taught me to play

Under the hammock
Under the hammock
My swift dog
That ran to the yard
When he saw my love arrive

My brunette when she passed the gate
I could smell her
I would run to hug her

A tight hug and a long kiss
And a little wind that would
Lift her dress

We would spend the night
By the edge of the pond
My God, how could I
Leave that place

I will come back
I will come back
To the arms of my beloved
And on a moonlit night
I will love you again
