Água de Cachoeira

Waterfall Water

Água de Cachoeira

There in the quarryLá na pedreira
Rolls from the waterfallRola da cachoeira
A strong waterÚma água forte
To bathe mePra me banhar
A strong waterUma água forte
To bathe mePra me banhar

It fills me with faithEla me enche de fé
Giving me a bath of peaceMe dando um banho de paz

I drink from it in the gourdBebo dela no coité
And see the good it does meE vejo o bem que me faz
Water to drinkÁgua de beber
Water to wetÁgua de molhar
Water to blessÁgua de benzer
Water to prayÁgua de rezar

At the mouth of the forestNa boca da mata
There's a golden keytem chave de ouro
There are silver stonesTem pedras de prata
And birds of omenE aves de agouro
There's a sweet mysteryTem um doce mistério
That I can't explainQue eu não sei contar
I just know to tell youEu só sei dizer pra você
That my father lives thereQue meu pai mora lá
