Full lyrics
Toca, toca uma polquinha
Que eu quero me espalhar
Toca, toca Malaquía
Para o baile melhorar bis
Para lá com este samba
Sambar não quero mais
Toca, toca uma polquinhas
Do tempo do Pai Tomáz bis
Um pulinho pra lá
Um pulinho pra cá
Um passo pra descansar bis
Translation
Play, play a polka
Because I want to let loose
Play, play Malaquias
To make the dance better bis
Away with this samba
I don't want to samba anymore
Play, play a polka
From the time of Father Tomaz bis
A little jump to there
A little jump to here
A step to rest bis
