Full lyrics

Meu nordeste querido

Não consigo esquecer

A saudade é grande

Sinto ela doer

Eu te vendo distante

Vivo sempre a lembrar

A saudade é demais

Mais não consegue me matar


Nasci na Paraíba conheço Pernambuco e também Ceará

Morei em alagoas, daquela gente boa não posso falar

Hoje eu vivo em São Paulo porque gosto de trabalhar

Meu Nordeste sofrido o que me deixa triste é não poder ajudar


Quando eu deixei o meu norte a tristeza foi tão grande no meu coração

Hoje estou em São Paulo trabalhando e cantando e tocando baião

Translation

My beloved Nordeste

I cannot forget

The saudade is great

I feel it hurt

Seeing you far away

I always live remembering

The saudade is too much

But it cannot kill me


I was born in Paraíba, I know Pernambuco and also Ceará

I lived in Alagoas, I can't help but talk about those good people

Today I live in São Paulo because I like to work

My suffering Nordeste, what makes me sad is not being able to help


When I left my north, the sadness was so great in my heart

Today I am in São Paulo working and singing and playing baião
