Full lyrics
Eu quero homenagear
Eu quero homenagear
O saudoso nego Uróia
Que nasceu em Curuçá
Pois foi ele o primeiro a cantar carimbo lá no Pará
O conjunto pau e corda
Com o seu cordão pela rua a cantar
Dona da casa nos de a licença
Que o nosso cordão quer brincar
A licença já esta dada
E a turma já esta preparada
Translation
I want to pay homage
I want to pay homage
To the late Nego Uróia
Who was born in Curuçá
For he was the first to sing carimbo in Pará
The pau e corda ensemble
With his cordão through the street singing
Lady of the house, give us permission
That our cordão wants to play
Permission is already given
And the group is already prepared
