Recife

Recife
If you go to Recife
Don't forget the hat's mat
Because the beaches and the Sun of Recife
Seem more like things from heaven!
When you go to Recife
Don't forget the string literature books
And the crafts of my Recife
Seem more like things from heaven!
In every city, so much freedom
How many girls there are
And the old Olinda
How beautiful it is
How many girls there are, how many girls
When you go to Recife
Don't forget the mat and the hat
Because the beaches and the Sun of Recife
Are on earth a beautiful blue from heaven
Because the beaches and the Sun of Recife
Seem more like things from heaven!
There are many more beautiful things in Recife
Beyond the beaches and the Sun
There is a whole culture
That boils with the frevo
And that falls silent and trembles
Under the sound of the Maracatus de Baque virado
There is a whole folklore
Waiting to be explored
There is a wonderful people
Who welcome visitors
With open arms
And a heart full of love!
