Haipucú
Haipucú sozinho pensando na vida
Juntando bacába com mel tataira
Junta fruta macho folhas de figueira
Plantas da roseira tucum e chiririca
Homens de frutas nasceram
Na terra do milho
Povos antigos de gesto frutal
Povos amigos
Em nove luares nasceram tapuios
Mistura de frutas com polém de mato
Nascerão seus filhos na beira do rio
A mulher papaia e o homem genipapo
Haipucú
Pensando na vida.
Haipucú
Haipucú alone, thinking about life
Gathering wild fruit with honey and spice
Collecting ripe figs and leafy greens
Plants from the rosebush, palm, and wild beans
Men of the fruit were born
In the land of corn
Ancient peoples with fruitful ways
Friendly folks from the dawn of days
In nine moonlit nights, tapuios were born
A mix of fruits with wild thorns
Their children will rise by the riverside
The woman’s a papaya, the man’s a genipap
Haipucú
Thinking about life.
