Lyrics
Rapazes e raparigas
Alegres e sorridentes
Cantam as suas cantigas
Para todos os presentes
Dancam marchas e bailinhos
Alegrando a sua aldeia
Baila a malta nos caminhos
Da charamba a sapateia
Refrao:
O chapeu de palha E uma tradicao
Bailinhos de roda chamarrita E animacao
O chapeu de palha E uma tradicao
Bailinhos de roda chamarrita E animacao
Suas bandas e touradas
Consertos e cantorias
Fuguetes bodo e manadas
Procissoes e romarias
Sao lindas as tuas festas
E em cada aldeia e diferente
Com suas tradicoes modestas
Assim como a sua gente
Lyrics translation
Boys and girls
Happy and smiling
They sing their songs
For all gifts
They dance marches and dances
Rejoicing your village
Dance the malta on the paths
From charamba to sapateia
Refrain:
The straw hat and a tradition
Ballitos de roda decarrita and animacao
The straw hat and a tradition
Ballitos de roda decarrita and animacao
Their bands and bullfights
Repairs and singing
Fugues bodo and herds
Processions and pilgrimages
Your parties are beautiful
And in each village and different
With its modest traditions
Just like your people
