Lyrics

Minha terra tem pauleira
Desencanta e faz chorar
Mas tem um fio de esperança
Quando e canta e quando dança
No assobio do sabiá
O sábio sabiá sabia assobiar
Sabia assobiar e eu via
O sábio sabiá sabia assobiar
Sabia assobiar
O sábio sabiá sabia assobiar
Sabia assobiar e eu via
O sábio sabiá sabia assobiar
Sabia assobiar
Será que o sábio sabia
Que só aqui assobia o sabiá?
Que as aves que aqui rodeiam
Também rodeiam por lá?
Na floresta, na avenida
N’alguma fresta da vida
A ave tenta escapar
Por mais terra que eu percorra
Só permita Deus que eu corra
Pra que eu veja esse voar
Minha terra tem pauleira
Desencanta e faz chorar
Mas tem um fio de esperança
Quando e canta e quando dança
No assobio do sabiá
Sabia assobiar
Sabia assobiar e eu via
O sábio sabiá sabia assobiar
Sabia assobiar
O sábio sabiá sabia assobiar
Sabia assobiar e eu via
O sábio sabiá sabia assobiar
Sabia assobiar

Lyrics translation

My land has pauleira
Disenchant and make you cry
But it has a thread of hope
When and sings and when dances
In the whistle of the wise
The wise Sabia knew how to whistle
I knew how to whistle and I saw
The wise Sabia knew how to whistle
Could whistle
The wise Sabia knew how to whistle
I knew how to whistle and I saw
The wise Sabia knew how to whistle
Could whistle
Did the wise man know
That only here whistles the Sabia?
That the birds that surround here
Are you around there, too?
In the forest, on the avenue
N'any crevice of life
The bird tries to escape
No matter how much land I travel
Just let God let me run
For me to see this fly
My land has pauleira
Disenchant and make you cry
But it has a thread of hope
When and sings and when dances
In the whistle of the wise
Could whistle
I knew how to whistle and I saw
The wise Sabia knew how to whistle
Could whistle
The wise Sabia knew how to whistle
I knew how to whistle and I saw
The wise Sabia knew how to whistle
Could whistle
