Full lyrics
Pra começar
Eu vou te amar o ano inteiro
De janeiro a janeiro
Meu amor, sem atropelo
E seguiremos
Caminhando sobre os dias
Carnaval vem chegando
E vamos cair na folia
Apronte a sua fantasia
Que eu afino o meu pandeiro
Vamos brincar todo dia
Em Olinda no Bloco do Beijo
No Recife na beira do cais
Nos entregar ao desejo
De Janeiro a Janeiro, sem atropelo
Translation
To begin
I will love you all year long
From January to January
My love, without rushing
And we will continue
Walking through the days
Carnival is coming
And we will revel in the festivities
Get your costume ready
While I tune my tambourine
Let's play every day
In Olinda at the Kissing Block party
In Recife by the docks
We surrender to desire
From January to January, without rushing
