Full lyrics

Foi numa leva que a cabocla Maringá

Ficou sendo a retirante que mais dava o que falar

E junto dela veio alguém que suplicou

Pra que nunca se esquecesse de um caboclo que ficou


Maringá, Maringá

Depois que tu partiste

Tudo aqui ficou tão triste

Que eu garrei a imaginar


Maringá, Maringá

Para haver felicidade

É preciso que a saudade

Vá bater noutro lugar


Maringá, Maringá

Volta aqui pro meu sertão

Pra de novo o coração

De um caboclo assossegar


Antigamente uma alegria sem igual

Dominava aquela gente da cidade de Pombal

Mas veio a seca, toda chuva foi-se embora

Só restando então as água

Dos meus olhos quando chora


Maringá, Maringá

Maringá, Maringá


Maringá, Maringá

Volta aqui pro meu sertão

Pra de novo o coração

De um caboclo assossegar

Translation

It was in a wave that the Maringá woman

Became the migrant who caused the most talk

And with her came someone who pleaded

For her never to forget a countryman who stayed


Maringá, Maringá

After you left

Everything here became so sad

That I started to imagine


Maringá, Maringá

For there to be happiness

It is necessary for the longing

To go knock on another place


Maringá, Maringá

Come back here to my backlands

So that again the heart

Of a countryman may find peace


In the old days an unparalleled joy

Dominated those people from the city of Pombal

But the drought came, all the rain was gone

Leaving only the water

From my eyes when it cries


Maringá, Maringá

Maringá, Maringá


Maringá, Maringá

Come back here to my backlands

So that again the heart

Of a countryman may find peace
