Full lyrics
É a noite inteira nesse repuxado
O sanfoneiro toca o fole quase embriagado
E a moçada castigando bem no machucado
As meninas estão falando que forró danado
Sanfoneiro ta com a peste deve ta envenenado
Amanhece o dia vem o clareado
Todo mundo ta sabendo que ta terminado
E a poeira vai baixando no suor pingado
A sanfona refugando grita o povoado
Sanfoneiro ta com a peste deve ta envenenado
Translation
It's the whole night in this dragging dance
The sanfona player plays the fole almost drunk
And the young people really going at it
The girls are saying what an amazing forró
The sanfona player is possessed, must be poisoned
Day breaks, the light comes
Everyone knows it's over
And the dust is settling in the dripping sweat
The sanfona struggling, the village shouts
The sanfona player is possessed, must be poisoned
