Full lyrics
O cheiro do manacá me faz lembrar
O cheiro dela quando na janela
Esperava ela passar
O cheiro dela quando na janela
Esperava ela passar
Vestido de chita com os pés no chão
Nos lábios trazendo sempre uma canção
O jeito manhoso dela me olhar
O cheiro de amor espalhado no ar
Cheiro de manacá
Translation
The scent of manacá makes me remember
Her scent when at the window
I waited for her to pass
Her scent when at the window
I waited for her to pass
Wearing a calico dress with bare feet on the ground
On her lips always bringing a song
Her coy way of looking at me
The scent of love spread in the air
Scent of manacá
