Full lyrics
É uma casa de barro
Coberta de planta e ramo
Que pagode grande
Que bonito é
Vê a morenada de saia rodada
Manchar a trança
A menina dança cheirando a fulo
Subiu o calor no barro molhado
E o coco rasgado de embalar a terra
Em cima da serra tem o cantador
Ô lê lê ô menina, ia ia mandou lhe chamar
Ô lê lê ô menina, tem roda de coco eu to la
Translation
It's a mud house
Covered in plants and branches
What a great party
How beautiful it is
To see the dark-haired girls in swirling skirts
Staining the braid
The girl dances smelling of flower
The heat rose in the wet clay
And the torn coconut to pack the earth
On top of the mountain there is the singer
Oh lê lê oh girl, ia ia sent to call you
Oh lê lê oh girl, there's a coco circle, I'm there
Oh lê lê oh girl, ia ia sent to call you
Oh lê lê oh girl, there's a coco circle, I'm there
