Full lyrics
De cachimbo na boca
Sentado no toco
Ele faz milagre
Cura cego e cura louco
Faz bananeira dar cacho a meia noite
Faz mudo falar, um surdo escutar
Esse homem não é de brincadeira
Quem quiser curar mironga
Acende vela na pedreira
Translation
With a pipe in his mouth
Sitting on the tree stump
He performs miracles
He cures the blind and cures the mad
He makes banana trees bear fruit at midnight
He makes the mute speak, a deaf person hear
This man is not to be trifled with
Whoever wants to cure a spiritual affliction
Lights a candle at the quarry
