Pandeiro É Meu Nome
Alcione
My Name is Pandeiro
They said my buddy
My deaf friend seems absurd
Gets hit for everything
No one sings samba without him getting hit
Didn’t they hear about his partner
Buddy pandeiro (look at him there)
He also picks coconuts from the same palm tree?
Gets hit smiling for the people to sing
Pandeiro isn’t absurd, but it’s my name
I’m not called deaf, but I can handle hunger
Pandeiro doesn’t eat, but it can take a hit
To the people who vibe with the strength of Brazilian sound
It’s not just the deaf, nor just the pandeiro
There’s a family playing it right
You singing, playing, and hitting us
Going through everything so indifferent
You don’t know the pain of the instrumental
Batuqueiro hey, batuqueiro
Singing samba, you can hit the pandeiro
Batuqueiro hey, batuqueiro
Singing samba, you can hit the pandeiro
