Carimbó no mato
Eu fui no mato morena
fui tirar cipó
muito longe ouvi um batuque
parecido um carimbó (bis)
Eu vou de banda de banda de banda
eu vou de lado de lado de lá
eu fiquei só
dançando no mato carimbó.
Carimbó in the forest
I went to the forest, brunette
I went to get some vine
Far away I heard a drumming
Similar to a carimbó (repeat)
I go from side to side to side
I go from side to side over there
I was alone
Dancing carimbó in the forest.
