Blew off my hat, shook my chain
It's the breath of a party accordion that
It's such a clear note right in my hand
Pressing the bass notes of my heart
It's everything I leave behind, nothing else
I'm a homeless little bird
I live in the world, but I'm not from here
When I can't fly anymore
I let the work and the herd go by
It's landing on the guitar and playing a big moda tune
Don't tell me you don't like it
Don't tell me you don't like it
Man, this wind right here
Kissed my horse on the seashore
It's the serenade song of someone who's already gone
And is about to come back
It's the gust that fires up the engine of Rio
That comes from deep inside our Brazil
Whoever saw, whoever sang
Whoever cried, whoever smiled
It's iron, it's fire, it's a stomp
Oh, good news, lightning flash news
I've already got it in my hand
The password, the saddle and the spur
The chestnut waiting for the backlands to turn into sea
The sea then lighting up in fire
It's the end, it's the start, I sang
It's the party of the king's return
