Full lyrics
Pelo tamanho do copo
Se conhece o bebedor
Pelo roncado do fole
Se conhece o tocador
Esse teu suor salgado
Esse olhar namorador
Morena, nesse forró
Já sei quem é meu amor
És tu morena, morena bela
Bela morena, és tu ora se é
Se tu quizer
Arruma as trouxas agora
Que nói vai simbora
Depois desse arrasta-pé
Translation
By the size of the glass
One knows the drinker
By the roar of the accordion
One knows the musician
This salty sweat of yours
This flirtatious gaze
Morena, in this forró
I already know who my love is
It's you, Morena, beautiful Morena
Beautiful Morena, it's you, oh yes it is
If you want
Pack your bags now
Because we're leaving
After this arrasta-pé
