Full lyrics

A ti contaram mentiras

E tu ficaste zangada

Meu bem cajueiro doce

É o que leva pedrada

Meu bem, Cajueiro doce

É o que leva pedrada


Eu amei, eu sofri pra aprender

E não troco meu sofrer por nada

Meu bem cajueiro doce

É o que leva pedrada


Só quem ama, é quem aprende a sofrer

E eu não troco meu sofrer por nada

Meu bem, cajueiro doce

É o que leva pedrada


Cajueiro

Cajueiro

Cajueiro doce

Translation

They told you lies

And you got angry

My darling sweet cashew tree

Is the one that gets stoned

My darling, sweet cashew tree

Is the one that gets stoned


I loved, I suffered to learn

And I wouldn't trade my suffering for anything

My darling sweet cashew tree

Is the one that gets stoned


Only those who love, are those who learn to suffer

And I wouldn't trade my suffering for anything

My darling, sweet cashew tree

Is the one that gets stoned


Cashew tree

Cashew tree

Sweet cashew tree
