Full lyrics

Eu tinha um sabiá numa gaiola

Um dia foi embora ou a maria carregou

Repetir 2x


Me guarda esse bichinho

Não deixe ninguém pegar

Eu tenho ciúme dele,

Deixe do jeito que tá

Repetir 2x


É um pássaro de estimação

Cuidado pra não voar

Te peço, Maria

Me devolva o sabiá

Repetir 2x


Ei, sabiá,

Que canta na laranjeira

Ei, sabiá,

Quero ouvir o seu cantar

Repetir 2x

Translation

I had a sabiá in a cage

One day it left or Maria took it

Repetir 2x


Guard this little animal for me

Don't let anyone take it

I'm jealous of it,

Leave it as it is

Repetir 2x


It's a pet bird

Be careful not to let it fly away

I ask you, Maria

Give me back the sabiá

Repetir 2x


Hey, sabiá,

That sings in the orange tree

Hey, sabiá,

I want to hear your singing

Repetir 2x
