Ouço Uma Voz

I hear a voice calling me
Run and come see, it's this woman crying
Crazy for me to come back, she is
Let the carnival pass by

The old pagode
Stirs us, brings back memories
I speak the truth, I don't lie
All I feel is inspiration
When the carnival passes, my friend
I will punish her
To learn not to mock
Respect a malandro from Portela

I hear a voice calling me
Run come see, this woman crying
Crazy for me to come back she is
Let the carnival pass by

She came to repent
Sooner than expected
It was fear of losing me
To another who was already looking at me
These rhymes of my verses
Bring me submerged in the sea of passion
Face the revolt of the seas
If you don't accept me into your heart

I hear a voice calling me
Run come see, this woman crying
Crazy for me to come back she is
Let the carnival pass by
