A Coisa Mais Linda do Mundo

The most beautiful thing in the world
Is when in the month of June
In my São José
On every face, a smile
It's the guaranteed ox festival
That is about to begin
The kettle lid will fly

There will be peanut brittle, yes
Cornmeal cake, yes
There will be a lot of cachaça
There will be a lot of women
I'll dance with Saint Anthony
For sure this year
I know I'll get ready
In my ox dance

There will be a lot of songs, yes
Many beautiful verses, yes
To the sound of the drumming
That makes me ecstatic
This is my guaranteed ox
He is the most beautiful bull
He is the king of this place
