Full lyrics
Ela é dona de 7 colinas
Debruçadas na beira do mar
Transparente, solar, cristalina
Feminina, muito mais que linda
Caeté, lusitana, guerreira
Tem no peito o fogo da paixão
Preguiçosa, morena, faceira
Ela é dona do meu coração
Seu estilo discreto e elegante
Se transforma e no Carnaval
É cigana, boneca-gigante, sensual
Quantos becos, esquinas, ladeiras,
Quantas ruas a se percorrer
Nós brincamos até quarta-feira
Pelo simples prazer do prazer
Translation
She owns 7 hills
Leaning on the seashore
Transparent, sunny, crystalline
Feminine, much more than beautiful
Caeté, Lusitanian, warrior
She has the fire of passion in her chest
Lazy, brunette, flirtatious
She owns my heart
Her discreet and elegant style
Transforms and in Carnival
She is a gypsy, giant-doll, sensual
How many alleys, corners, slopes,
How many streets to walk
We play until Wednesday
For the simple pleasure of pleasure
