Full lyrics
Senhor nos mande uma chuva
Que caia junto a nascente
Que mate a sede da gente
Dos bichos, de toda a natura
Chover meu Santo São Bento
Nos rios, açudes, barreiros
Pede chuva de aguaceiro
O tempo e o vento
Translation
Lord send us rain
That falls near the spring
That quenches the thirst of the people
Of the animals, of all nature
Rain, my Saint Benedict
In the rivers, ponds, dams
Ask for a downpour of rain
The weather and the wind
