Lyrics
Aquela estrela é dela
Vida, vento, vela, leva-me daqui
As velas do Mucuripe
Vão sair para pescar
E eu vou levar as minhas mágoas
Pras águas fundas do mar
Hoje à noite namorar
Sem ter medo da saudade
E sem vontade de casar
Calça nova de riscado
Paletó de linho branco
Que até o mês passado
Lá no campo ainda era flor
Sob o meu chapéu quebrado
O sorrido ingênuo e franco
De um rapaz novo encantado
Com 20 anos de amor
As velas do Mucuripe
Vão sair para pescar
Vou levar as minhas mágoas
Pras águas fundas do mar
Hoje à noite namorar
Sem ter medo da saudade
E sem vontade de casar
Calça nova de riscado
Paletó de linho branco
Que até o mês passado
Lá no campo ainda era flor
Sob o meu chapéu quebrado
O sorrido ingênuo e franco
De um rapaz novo encantado
Com 20 anos de amor
Aquela estrela é dela
Vida, vento, vela, leva-me daqui
É dela, aquela estrela é dela
Vida, vento, vela, leva-me daqui
Lyrics translation
That star is hers
Life, wind, sail, take me away
The candles from the Mucuripe
They're going out fishing.
And I'll take my sorrows
Deep sea waters
Tonight dating
Without being afraid of longing
And no desire to marry
New striped pants
White linen jacket
That until last month
There in the field was still flower
Under my broken hat
The naive and frank smile
From an enchanted young boy
With 20 years of love
The candles from the Mucuripe
They're going out fishing.
I'll take my sorrows
Deep sea waters
Tonight dating
Without being afraid of longing
And no desire to marry
New striped pants
White linen jacket
That until last month
There in the field was still flower
Under my broken hat
The naive and frank smile
From an enchanted young boy
With 20 years of love
That star is hers
Life, wind, sail, take me away
It's hers, that star is hers
Life, wind, sail, take me away
