Full lyrics
Ai,ai, ai te amo moreninha
Isso já faz tanto tempo
Desde tu pequenininha
Ai,ai ,ai te amo moreninha
Não nascestes pra ser d'outro
Tu nascestes pra ser minha
Quando eu te vi em pequena
Uma coisa me atentava
O jeito do teu andar
Era o que eu mais reparava
Fingindo não te querer
E tu não adivinhava que o amor
Cá dentro teu a tempos se aninhava
Ai,ai, ai te amo moreninha
Isso já faz tanto tempo
Desde tu pequenininha
Ai,ai ,ai te amo moreninha
Não nascestes pra ser d'outro
Tu nascestes pra ser minha
Teus olhos duas quixaba
Tua boca uma corola
Teus dentes da cor de leite
Teu corpinho de viola
Tua cintura de abelha
Quem olhar não se controla
O forte perde a razão
Sendo fraco, perde "a bola"
Ai,ai, ai te amo moreninha
Isso já faz tanto tempo
Desde tu pequenininha
Ai,ai ,ai te amo moreninha
Não nasceste pra ser d'outro
Tu nascestes pra ser minha
Este sujeito abelhudo
Que ganhou minha querida
Tu misturastes com ele
Porque fostes mal ouvida
O destino este perverso
Com essa sina atrevida
Vem mexer com a tua sorte
Atrapalhar a nossa vida
Translation
Oh, oh, oh I love you, brunette
It's been so long
Since you were a little girl
Oh, oh, oh I love you, brunette
You weren't born to belong to another
You were born to be mine
When I saw you as a child
One thing caught my attention
The way you walked
Was what I noticed most
Pretending not to want you
And you didn't guess that love
Had been nesting inside you for a long time
Oh, oh, oh I love you, brunette
It's been so long
Since you were a little girl
Oh, oh, oh I love you, brunette
You weren't born to belong to another
You were born to be mine
Your eyes, two quixaba trees
Your mouth, a corolla
Your teeth the color of milk
Your body like a viola
Your waist like a bee
Whoever looks can't control themselves
The strong lose their reason
Being weak, they lose "the ball"
Oh, oh, oh I love you, brunette
It's been so long
Since you were a little girl
Oh, oh, oh I love you, brunette
You weren't born to belong to another
You were born to be mine
This nosy guy
Who won my darling
You mixed with him
Because you were misheard
Destiny, this perverse thing
With this cheeky fate
Comes to mess with your luck
To disrupt our lives
