Lyrics
Sentada na ermida de São Simeão
Cercaram-me as ondas, que grandes são!
Eu atendendo o meu amigo!
Eu atendendo o meu amigo!
Estando na ermida, frente ao altar
Cercaram-me as ondas, grandes do mar!
Eu atendendo o meu amigo!
Eu atendendo o meu amigo!
Não tenho barqueiro nem armador
Morrerei formosa no mar maior!
Eu atendendo o meu amigo!
Eu atendendo o meu amigo!
Lyrics translation
Sitting in the Hermitage of St. Simeon
The waves have surrounded me, how big they are!
I attend to my friend!
I attend to my friend!
Standing in the Hermitage, facing the altar
I've been surrounded by waves, big waves of the sea!
I attend to my friend!
I attend to my friend!
I have no boatman or shipowner
I'll Die Beautiful in the greater sea!
I attend to my friend!
I attend to my friend!
