Full lyrics
E a fogueira queima, queima
Queimou
Haja amor e haja fogo
Haja fogo e haja amor
E a sanfona quando chora pirim pirim pirim
É o forro que ta na tora pirim pirim pirim
É tão gostoso, um forro bem animado
Se ouve o sapateado
Das morenas no salão
Pede a São Pedro, santinho padroeiro
Que auxilie o matrimonio a Santo Antonio casamenteiro
Você gosta de mim, o neguinha
Eu também de você, o neguinha
Vou pedir a seu pai, o neguinha
Pra me casar com você
Translation
And the bonfire burns, burns
It burned
Let there be love and let there be fire
Let there be fire and let there be love
And the sanfona when it cries pirim pirim pirim
It's the forró that's in full swing pirim pirim pirim
It's so delightful, a lively forró
You hear the stomping
Of the brunettes in the hall
Ask São Pedro, patron saint
To assist the marriage to Santo Antonio the matchmaker
You like me, oh neguinha
I like you too, oh neguinha
I'm going to ask your father, oh neguinha
To marry you
