Full lyrics

Ô Zabé, Zabé, Zabé

Zabé, Zabé, dez vezes Zabé

Ô Zabé, Zabé meu bem

Eu chamo tanto e Zabé não vem


Ô Zabé não quero me humilhar

Mas o amor depois da briga

É gostoso pra danar

É o mel que cai na boca

De quem comeu saburá

E chuva depois da seca

Nas terras do Ceará

Por isso minha Zabezinha

Não canso de te chamar

Ôi Zabé, Ôi Mané, Ôi Zabé, Ôi Mané

Ôi Zabé, Ôi Mané


Ôi Mané, Mané, Mané

Mané, Mané, dez vezes Mané

Ôi Mané, Mané meu bem

Eu chamo tanto

E Mané não vem


Ôi Mané, não quero me humilhar

Mas amor depois da briga

É gostoso pra danar

É o mel que cai na boca

De quem comeu saburá

E chuva depois da seca

Nas terras do Ceará

Por isso meu Manezinho

Não canso de te chamar


Ô Mané, ôi Zabé

Ô Mané, ôi Zabé

Ô Mané, ôi Zabé

Translation

Oh Zabé, Zabé, Zabé

Zabé, Zabé, ten times Zabé

Oh Zabé, Zabé my dear

I call so much and Zabé doesn't come


Oh Zabé, I don't want to humble myself

But love after a fight

Is incredibly good

It's the honey that falls into the mouth

Of one who tasted bitterness

And rain after the drought

In the lands of Ceará

That's why my Zabezinha

I don't tire of calling you

Oh Zabé, Oh Mané, Oh Zabé, Oh Mané

Oh Zabé, Oh Mané


Oh Mané, Mané, Mané

Mané, Mané, ten times Mané

Oh Mané, Mané my dear

I call so much

And Mané doesn't come


Oh Mané, I don't want to humble myself

But love after a fight

Is incredibly good

It's the honey that falls into the mouth

Of one who tasted bitterness

And rain after the drought

In the lands of Ceará

That's why my Manezinho

I don't tire of calling you


Oh Mané, oh Zabé

Oh Mané, oh Zabé

Oh Mané, oh Zabé
