Full lyrics
São João já chegou
Trazendo alegria e forró
O milharal fulorô trazendo
A riqueza do chão
A morena se enfeitou
Sonhando com o seu amor
Acendeu uma fogueira
Dentro do seu coração
Namorando esta morena
Arrepio à imaginação
Que chamego bom danado
Tô morrendo de paixão
Toca miudinho, toca miudinho
Toca miudinho, pra eu dançar
Com o meu amor (Bis)
Translation
São João has arrived
Bringing joy and forró
The cornfield blossomed bringing
The richness of the ground
The morena adorned herself
Dreaming of her love
She lit a bonfire
Inside her heart
Courting this morena
It thrills the imagination
What a wonderfully good chamego
I'm dying of passion
Play delicately, play delicately
Play delicately, for me to dance
With my love (Bis)
