Flor do Mandacaru
Chico César
Mandacaru Flower
Send, caru
Mandacaru flower for me
To put on the xaxim
On top of the television
Send, caru
A flower like this from the backlands
A thistle flower
To cheer up my heart
Just to keep as a memento
From the time of childhood
Because remembering is needed
Like an endless prayer
Send, caru
Mandacaru flower for me
By mail or by truck
On a boat from São Francisco
I ask you to hurry
Because missing you is bad
Send, caru
Mandacaru flower for me
