Lyrics

Louvado seja deus ó meu pai
Louvado seja deus ó meu pai
Ô canoeiro bota a rede
Bota a rede no mar
Ô canoeiro bota a rede no mar
Cerca o peixe
Bate o remo
Puxa a corda
Colhe a rede
Ô canoeiro puxa a rede do mar
Vai ter presente pra chiquinha
Vai ter presente pra yayá
Canoeiro puxa a rede do mar
Yayá me dá teu remo
Teu remo pra mim remar
O remo caiu quebrou-se mana
Lá em alto mar

Lyrics translation

Praise be to God o my father
Praise be to God o my father
O canoe boot the net
Boot the net into the sea
O canoe boot the net into the sea
Fence the fish
Beat the paddle
Pull the rope
Harvest the net
O canoe pulls the net from the sea
Will be present for little girl
Will be present for yayá
Canoe pulls the net from the sea
Yayah give me your paddle
Your paddle for me to paddle
The paddle fell broke mana
There on the high seas
