Sabor Colorido [English translation]

Honey... I want honey1

I want honey from every flower

From the pink rose, the yellow and the red rose

The rose as white as the carnation, lily and jasmine

I want honey for myself

Honey... Do you want honey?

I want honey from every flower

From the daisy, the sempre viva 2

Sun, sunny, sunflower

If I'd give you honey there could be some danger

Right here, in my garden

Beware, some ants may appear

Honey... I want honey

I want honey from every flower

Colorful taste... of every flower's honey

Before an adventurer bird3

That gives a kiss, sweet taste

Colorful taste

Honey... I want honey

I want honey from every flower

From the Madonna lily, violet, aztec lily

Lotus flower, cactus flower

Flower of the moriche palm

Dahlia, poppy, chrysanthemum

Peaceful, nice dream, mandacaru 4 cactus flower

Quince tree flower, catingueira 5 tree flower

Orange tree flower, West Indian locust tree flower

Of imburanas6, baraúnas7, sugar cane

Xique-xique8, sugar cane honey, sugar cane from the plantation

Come give me some honey because I want it all over me

Honey... I want honey

I want honey from every flower

Before and adventurer bird

That gives a kiss, sweet taste

Colorful taste

Honey
