Baião do Mundo [English translation]

The rain brought down some water to fill up the cup

In the water lies a mirror full of a water

Water for me, some water

Bring me some water

Water that undermines some water

Bring me some water

Come, Cantareira1

Sing in the gutters

Open the faucet and cry

Come, dispenser

Purifier

Give me a sip now

Water for me, some water

Bring me some water

Water that undermines some water

Bring me some water

Come, water current

Flow in the stream bed

Towards the sea that eats you

Water that washes

And that moves the canoe

It flies when it evaporates

Water for me, some water

Bring me some water

Water that undermines some water

Bring me some water

Precious

Miraculous

Come, sprinkle us

Go, current

From the spring

Till it gets to the mouth

Fill up the cup, fill up the cup

Fill up the cup, fill up the cup

The rain brought down some water to fill up the cup

In the water lies a mirror full of a water

Water for me, some water

Bring me some water

Water that undermines some water

Bring me some water
