Full lyrics

Vinte anos de sanfona,zabumba,triângulo,

Farra,poeira e suor

Vinte anos de janela pois sim,

Minha vida é o forró

A quatro décadas estou aqui

Foi na primeira em que eu me descobrir

E na segunda ainda quase gurí

Mamãe dizia vc vai tocar pra mim

E me deu uma safona bonita toda azulona

Que se fez dona de toda situação,

Mamãe não esta mais aqui já cumpriu sua missão

Mais ela ronda de musa em meu coração

Canto pra ela aíaí toco pra ela é nada não

São vinte anos de janela

Translation

Twenty years of accordion, zabumba, triangle,

Partying, dust and sweat

Twenty years in the public eye, yes indeed,

My life is forró

For four decades I've been here

It was in the first that I discovered myself

And in the second still almost a boy

Momma used to say you're going to play for me

And she gave me a beautiful, all-blue accordion

Which took charge of the whole situation,

Momma is no longer here, she has fulfilled her mission

But she lingers as a muse in my heart

I sing for her, aíaí, I play for her, it's nothing at all

It's twenty years in the public eye
