Full lyrics
Confesso, que nasci em uma terra pequena
De nossa senhora da Penha, de mulher chamada mulher
A terra é de mulher macho sim senhor
A vidinha seu doutor que onda é que ela é
Tem Dona Maria, Tem Dona Chiquinha
Tem Dona Sofia, Tem Dona bavé
Tem Dona Juanita, Tem Dona Vil
Tem Dona Lia e Dona Dedé
E como adão de Taquara
Tinha uma chama Amara
Que era a rainha da mulher
Translation
I confess, I was born in a small land
Of Our Lady of Penha, of woman called woman
The land belongs to strong women, yes sir
Life, my dear doctor, what a vibe it is
There's Dona Maria, There's Dona Chiquinha
There's Dona Sofia, There's Dona Bavé
There's Dona Juanita, There's Dona Vil
There's Dona Lia and Dona Dedé
And like Adam from Taquara
There was one called Amara
Who was the queen of women
