Full lyrics

Só vendo como é que dói

Só vendo mesmo como é que dói

Trabalhar em Madureira e viajar na Cantareira

E morar em Niterói


Ei Cantareira

Ei Cantareira

Ei Cantareira

Vou aprender a nadar


Ei Cantareira

Ei Cantareira

Ei Cantareira

Eu não quero me afogar


De tanto viajar já tô ficando bambo

Já tô com o corpo mole de canseira

Por isso agora resolvi cantar o mambo

Vamos cantar o mambo Cantareira

Translation

Only seeing it shows how much it hurts

Only seeing it really shows how much it hurts

To work in Madureira and travel on the Cantareira

And live in Niterói


Hey Cantareira

Hey Cantareira

Hey Cantareira

I'm going to learn to swim


Hey Cantareira

Hey Cantareira

Hey Cantareira

I don't want to drown


From traveling so much I'm getting wobbly

My body is weak from exhaustion

That's why now I've decided to sing the mambo

Let's sing the mambo, Cantareira
