Full lyrics

O pagode aqui

Vai dá no meio da canela

Prepare a goela

Pra beber e pra cantar

O tocador

Sanfoneja e diz a loa

É aí que a paia avoa

E vamos ver a paia avuá } bis


Tá pegando fogo

Quero ver o fogo pegar

Cuidado morena

Prá você não se queimar


Tá pegando fogo

Quero ver você queimar

E nesse pagode

Comigo você entrar


Vem cá, vem cá, vem cá

Com você eu tenho lenha pra queimar

Vem cá, vem cá, vem cá

Vamos juntar o fogo

Só pra ver no que vai dar

Translation

The pagode here

It's going to get wild

Prepare your throat

To drink and to sing

The musician

Plays the sanfona and says the loa

That's when the straw flies

And we're going to see the straw fly } bis


It's catching fire

I want to see the fire catch

Be careful, morena

So you don't get burned


It's catching fire

I want to see you burn

And in this pagode

You join me


Come here, come here, come here

With you I have wood to burn

Come here, come here, come here

Let's gather the fire

Just to see what will happen
