Song of Parintins

Chico da Silva

Cantiga de Parintins

Na ilha Tupinambarana
Nasceu Parintins
Que eu vou decantar
Parintins dos Parintintins
Nome da tribo desse lugar

Parintins dos Parintintins
Nome da tribo desse lugar

No seio da mata virgem
A pureza das araras
O som do silêncio morno
A maloca dos Caiçaras
O canto da ariramba
Barranco do rio mar
O som rouco do remanso
O mormaço brando no ar
O cantar do miri miri
Mari mari e taperebá
O cheiro do muruci
O vinho de patauá

Na ilha Tupinambarana
Nasceu Parintins
Que eu vou decantar
Parintins dos Parintintins
Nome da tribo desse lugar

Parintins dos Parintintins
Nome da tribo desse lugar

O lombo de peixe-boi
Pirarucu bem assado
Piracuí de bodó
Tucunaré moqueado
Manja de turma se esconde
A outra vai procurar
A tribo das Andirás
E a dança do tangará
Terra de Dona Ciloca
Pastoras de meu boi bumbá
A pesca da piraíba
Viração de tracajá

Na ilha Tupinambarana
Nasceu Parintins
Que eu vou decantar
Parintins dos Parintintins
Nome da tribo Desse lugar

Parintins dos Parintintins
Nome da tribo desse lugar

Song of Parintins

On the island of Tupinambarana
Parintins was born
That I will sing about
Parintins of the Parintintins
Name of the tribe in this place

Parintins of the Parintintins
Name of the tribe in this place

In the heart of the virgin forest
The purity of the macaws
The sound of the warm silence
The home of the Caiçaras
The song of the ariramba
Riverbank of the big river
The hoarse sound of the calm
The gentle warmth in the air
The song of the miri miri
Mari mari and taperebá
The scent of muruci
The wine of patauá

On the island of Tupinambarana
Parintins was born
That I will sing about
Parintins of the Parintintins
Name of the tribe in this place

Parintins of the Parintintins
Name of the tribe in this place

The back of the manatee
Well-roasted pirarucu
Piracuí of bodó
Smoked tucunaré
One fish hides from the group
The other goes to look
The tribe of Andirás
And the dance of the tangará
Land of Dona Ciloca
Shepherds of my bumbá bull
The fishing of the piraíba
The turn of the tracajá

On the island of Tupinambarana
Parintins was born
That I will sing about
Parintins of the Parintintins
Name of the tribe in this place

Parintins of the Parintintins
Name of the tribe in this place
