Full lyrics

Meu bem não quer que eu vá

Sozinha, sozinha

Meu bem não quer que eu vá

Sozinha a beira-mar


Lá na beira do mar

Tem muito tubarão

Nos olhos de mormaço

Mordendo o coração

Quando eu vou com meu bem

É tudo mansidão

Mais quando eu vou sozinha

Eles não são mansos não


Uma vez la na praia

Num dia de calor

Me deitei na areia

Meu bem também deitou

Dormi a manha toda

Ninguém me incomodou

Mas fui tão beliscada

Quando meu bem cochilou

Translation

My darling doesn't want me to go

Alone, alone

My darling doesn't want me to go

Alone by the seashore


There by the seashore

There are many sharks

In the hazy eyes

Biting the heart

When I go with my darling

Everything is peacefulness

But when I go alone

They are not tame, no


One time there at the beach

On a hot day

I lay down on the sand

My darling also lay down

I slept the whole morning

Nobody bothered me

But I was so nipped

When my darling dozed off
