Full lyrics

Corre que corre que corre na batida de um coração

A esperança de um povo triste ouvindo o trovão

Vem a fé


Se Deus quiser

Vem o vento da maré

Trazer chuva

É o que a gente quer


Cada gota que molha um caroço de milho, feijão

É sinal de sustento do povo lá do meu sertão


Quando será que vai chover?

Quando será que vamos ver

O povo alegre sem ter medo de viver?


Do lado sul a gente vê

Gente chorando pra valer

Porque não tem onde morar, onde viver


Foi um barranco que caiu na minha casa

E levou tudo, ninguém pôde fazer nada

Enquanto isso o nordestino só vê fome

Nem se quer um pingo de água pra beber

Oh, pobre homem!


Em poucas palavras resumo

O que se passa no mundo

É a semente do vale profundo

Que plantamos a cada segundo

Translation

Runs and runs and runs to the beat of a heart

The hope of a sad people hearing the thunder

Faith comes


God willing

The tide wind comes

To bring rain

That's what we want


Every drop that wets a corn kernel, a bean

Is a sign of sustenance for the people of my sertão


When will it rain?

When will we see

The people happy without fear of living?


On the south side we see

People truly crying

Because they have nowhere to live, nowhere to reside


It was a landslide that fell on my house

And took everything, no one could do anything

Meanwhile the Nordestino only sees hunger

Not even a drop of water to drink

Oh, poor man!


In a few words I summarize

What happens in the world

It is the seed of the deep valley

That we plant every second
