Full lyrics
[refrão]:
Adeus, adeus, morena
Adeus, adeus, xodó
Adeus, adeus, morena
Adeus, adeus, xodó
Tenha dó de minhas penas
Não costumo viver só
(bis)
Ai!
Se o vento sopra lá na roça
Rodeia todo o capinzá
Me lembra o corpo da morena
Que só quer me ver pená
Adeus, adeus, morena
[intervalo instrumental]
Ai!
Quando a queimada lá na roça
Faz o céu avermeiá
Me lembra os lábios da morena
Que só quer me ver pená
Adeus, adeus, morena
[refrão]
Translation
[refrão]:
Goodbye, goodbye, Morena
Goodbye, goodbye, xodó
Goodbye, goodbye, Morena
Goodbye, goodbye, xodó
Have pity on my suffering
I'm not used to living alone
(bis)
Oh!
If the wind blows there in the countryside
It surrounds the entire grass field
It reminds me of Morena's body
Who only wants to see me suffer
Goodbye, goodbye, Morena
[instrumental interlude]
Oh!
When the burning there in the countryside
Makes the sky turn red
It reminds me of Morena's lips
Who only wants to see me suffer
Goodbye, goodbye, Morena
[refrão]
