Solo de metais (Introdução)
Lua tão linda, lua, lua, lua de Olinda
O sol abraça Recife tá chegando o carnaval, lua, lua linda (BIS)
Lua nova que vi e fiquei sem dormir quando lembrei dos olhos dela
Sob os raios de ouro e as estrelas de prata vi teu corpo moreno tremendo de amor
Lembrei do Marco Zero onde ganhei a gata e da gente se amando no escurinho da praça
Mergulhei no meu sonho real fantasia quando o sol despertava e a lua dormia
Lua tão linda, lua, lua, lua de Olinda
O sol abraça Recife tá chegando o carnaval, lua, lua linda (BIS)
Solo de metais
Lua nova que vi e fiquei sem dormir quando lembrei dos olhos dela
Sob os raios de ouro e as estrelas de prata vi teu corpo moreno tremendo de amor
Lembrei do Marco Zero onde ganhei a gata e da gente se amando no escurinho da praça
Mergulhei no meu sonho real fantasia quando o sol despertava e a lua dormia
Lua tão linda, lua, lua, lua de Olinda
O sol abraça Recife tá chegando o carnaval, lua, lua linda (BIS)
Solo de metais
Lembrei do Marco Zero onde ganhei a gata e da gente se amando no escurinho da praça
Mergulhei no meu sonho real fantasia quando o sol despertava e a lua dormia
Lua tão linda, lua, lua, lua de Olinda
O sol abraça Recife tá chegando o carnaval, lua, lua linda (BIS)
Solo de metais
Translation
Brass solo (Introduction)
Moon so beautiful, moon, moon, moon of Olinda
The sun embraces Recife, Carnaval is coming, moon, beautiful moon (BIS)
New moon I saw and couldn't sleep when I remembered her eyes
Under the golden rays and silver stars I saw your tanned body trembling with love
I remembered Marco Zero where I won the girl and us making love in the dark corner of the square
I dove into my real fantasy dream when the sun awoke and the moon slept
Moon so beautiful, moon, moon, moon of Olinda
The sun embraces Recife, Carnaval is coming, moon, beautiful moon (BIS)
Brass solo
