Mandacaru quando fulôra na seca
Mandacaru when soothoe in the drought
É o sinal que a chuva chega no sertão
It's the sign that the rain arrives in the backine
Toda menina que enjoa da boneca
Every girl who sickens the doll
É sinal que o amor já chegou no coração
It is a sign that love has already reached the heart
Meia comprida, não quer mais sapato baixo
Long sock, no longer want low shoe
Vestido bem cintado não quer mais vestir timão
Well-strapped dress no longer wants to wear helm
Ela só quer só pensa em namorar
She just wants to just think about dating
Ela só quer só pensa em namorar
She just wants to just think about dating
Ela só quer só pensa em namorar
She just wants to just think about dating
Ela só quer só pensa em namorar
She just wants to just think about dating
De manhã cedo, já tá pintada
Early in the morning, it's already painted
Só vive suspirando, sonhando acordada
She just keeps sighing, dreaming up
O pai leva ao doutô
The father takes to the doutô
A filha adoentada
The sick daughter
Não come, não estuda, não dorme, não quer nada
You don't eat, you don't study, you don't sleep, you don't want anything
Mas o doutô nem examina
But the doutô does not even examine
Chamando o pai de lado
Calling the Parent Aside
Lhe diz logo em surdina
It tells you in mute
O mal é da idade
Evil is of age
E que pra tal menina
And that for such a girl
Não há um só remédio em toda a medicina
There is not a single remedy in all medicine
