Lyrics

Olha Maria
Eu bem te queria
Fazer uma presa
Mas hoje, Maria
Da minha poesia
Pra minha surpresa
Precisas partir
Pra minha tristeza
Que estas tao aflita
Parte, Maria
Pra me abandonar
Que estas tao bonita
Sinto, Maria
Que estas de visita
Que estas toda nua
Teu corpo se agita
Querendo dancar
Que a lua te chama
Parte, Maria
Que estas tao mulher
Arde, Maria
Na chama da lua
Maria cigana
Maria mar
Parte cantando
Maria fugindo
Contra a ventania
Num colo de serra
Brincando, dormindo
Num campo vazio
Num leito de rio
Nos bracos do mar
Vai, alegria
Que a vida, Maria
Nao passa de um dia
Nao vou te prender
Corre, Maria
uma primavera
Que a vida nao espera
Nao podes perder
Anda, Maria
Pra te oferecerA minha agonia
Pois eu s teria

Lyrics translation

Look Maria
I loved you very much
Making a prey
But today, Mary
From my poetry
To my surprise
You need to leave.
To my sadness
That you're so distressed
Part, Maria
To abandon me
You look so pretty
I'm Sorry, Maria.
That you are visiting
That you're all naked
Your body shakes
Wanting to dance
That the moon calls you
Part, Maria
That these Tao woman
Burn, Mary
In the flame of the moon
Maria cigana
Maria mar
Part singing
Maria fugindo
Against the wind
On a mountain pass
Playing, Sleeping
In an empty field
On a riverbed
In the arms of the sea
Go, joy
That life, Mary
Just one day
I won't arrest you
Run, Maria
a spring
That life does not wait
You can't lose
Come On, Maria.
To offer you my agony
For i s would have
