Tajapanema (Foi Bôto, Sinhá)
Monica Salmaso
Tajapanema (It Was Boto, Lady)
Tajapanema cried in the yard
Tajapanema cried in the yard
And the dark-skinned virgin ran to the coast
It was boto, lady
It was boto, lady
Who came to try
And took the girl
And the man will dance
That doctor
It was boto, lady
It was boto, sir
Tajapanema started to cry
Tajapanema started to cry
Who has a young daughter should watch out
The boto doesn't sleep at the bottom of the river
Its power is immense
Whoever saw it
Should say and inform
If they resisted
The boto doesn't sleep
At the bottom of the river
