Full lyrics
Ai quem me dera ter bém pertinho de mim
Neste momento a mulher que eu mais a doro
Pra me embalar no colo e me fazer carinho
Não sou criança mais por seu denguinho choro (bis)
Mamãe, mamãe, nome sagrado pra quem sabe querer bém
Mamãe, mamãe, o amor mais puro que na vida agente tem (bis)
Translation
Oh, if only I had very close to me
At this moment, the woman I most adore
To cradle me in her lap and caress me
I'm not a child anymore, but for her tenderness I cry (bis)
Mom, Mom, sacred name for those who know how to love well
Mom, Mom, the purest love we have in life (bis)
