Full lyrics
Canta meu rouxinol cantador
Convide o sabiá e o beija-flor
Eu tô querendo um côro de passarinhos
Pra cantar afinadinho e acordar o meu amor
Que dia lindo
Lindo o sol de verão a natureza
Arrebol se faz canção
Fruta madura no bico do sanhaçú
É sinal que eu e tu
Não se desgruda mais não
É o meu peito pipocando de alegria
Numa orquestra de harmonia
Que renova o coração
Translation
Sing, my singing nightingale
Invite the thrush and the hummingbird
I'm wanting a choir of little birds
To sing in tune and wake up my love
What a beautiful day
Beautiful the summer sun, nature
Sunset glow becomes a song
Ripe fruit in the beak of the sanhaçú
It's a sign that you and I
Won't separate anymore
My chest is bursting with joy
In an orchestra of harmony
That renews the heart
