Frevo de Itamaracá

When I arrivedQuando eu cheguei
At my big beachNa minha praia grande
My beautiful beach of ItamaracáMinha praia linda de Itamaracá
I spent the day, turned the night aroundVarei o dia, revirei anoite
It dawned again and I stayed thereClareou de novo e eu ficando lá

There on the beachLá na praia
In the middle of the beach, in the center of the worldNo meio da praia, no centro do mundo
In the shallow, in the deepNo raso, no fundo
In the light, in the darkNo claro, no escuro
Of the straw, of the palm, of Itamaracá beachDa palha, da palma, da praia de Itamaracá
On the sand, in the middle of the sand and joyNa areia, no meio da areia e alegria
I thought and wanted, I would doPensasse e quisesse faria
It would be whatever it was meant to beSeria o que fosse pra ser

In the afternoonNa tarde
Heading towards the nurseryRumando pra lá do viveiro
With no time, no hour, no moneySem tempo, nem hora ou dinheiro
Living in the waves of the seaMorando nas ondas do mar
I spent the day, turned the night aroundVarei o dia, revirei a noite
It dawned again and I stayed thereClareou de novo e eu ficando lá

There on the beachLá na praia
In the middle of the beach, in the center of the worldNo meio da praia, no centro do mundo
In the shallow, in the deepNo raso, no fundo
In the light, in the darkNo claro, no escuro
Of the straw, of the palm of Itamaracá beachDa palha, da palma da praia de Itamaracá
On the sand, in the middle of the forgotten afternoonNa areia, no meio da tarde esquecido
Daydreaming, lostSonhando acordado, perdido
Afraid of the day endingCom medo do dia acabar
