História Pro Sinhozinho
Dorival Caymmi
Story for Little Sir
At the time when the sun hides
And sleep comes
Little Sir goes to look for
Hmm, hmm, hmm
The warm lap old lady
Who sings verses and tells stories
To lull
Hmm, hmm, hmm
Miss Zefa who tells stories
Miss Zefa knows how to please
Miss Zefa who when she lulls
Ends up dozing off
Miss Zefa goes murmuring
Stories to lull
Fish is this my son, fish is this my son
Not my father
Fish is this mutum, manganem
It's the bush's den, guenem, guenem
Your son
Play the marimba
