| Bela Aurora Beautiful Dawn | |
Original text | |
Encontrei à bela Aurora Sentada no meu jardim, Vestida de prata e ouro A colher contas pra mim. A bela Aurora da serra, Não sei como não tem medo: Faz a cama e dorme só À sombra do arvoredo! Encontrei à bela Aurora Penteadinha de tranças, A brincar com uma flor, Que é brinquedo de crianças. A bela Aurora da serra, Não sei como não tem medo: Faz a cama e dorme só À sombra do arvoredo! Encontrei à bela Aurora No mato, cortando lenha Cum machadinho de prata; Sua saia de estamenha... A bela Aurora da serra, Não sei como não tem medo: Faz a cama e dorme só À sombra do arvoredo! | |

I found the beautiful Dawn Sitting in my garden, All dressed in gold and silver While picking beads for me. The beautiful Dawn from the highlands, I don't know how she isn't afraid: She makes her bed and sleeps all alone Under a grove's shadow! I found the beautiful Dawn With a hairstyle made out of braids, Jumping around like a flower, Which is a children's game. The beautiful Dawn from the highlands, I don't know how she isn't afraid: She makes her bed and sleeps all alone Under a grove's shadow! I found the beautiful Dawn In the thicket, chopping wood With a little silver hatchet, Her skirt made out of serge. The beautiful Dawn from the highlands, I don't know how she isn't afraid: She makes her bed and sleeps all alone Under a grove's shadow!
