Dancing a Reggae Closely

The longing I feel for you,

Makes me break the light of day,

On the edge of the "Ponta D' Areia" beach,

Waiting on the pier for you to arrive,

All graceful, perfumed and graceful,

Gallant like a mermaid of the sea.

The memories are many journeys,

In the tireless search for our love,

I hear the mastery of reggae from the "Island of Love".

With soft waves of the sea coming and going,

And the rain falling with the strong breeze,

Wets my shirt on this border.

My great and wonderful Maranhão,

This is where the beautiful girl of my heart,

The city "National Capital of Reggae",

Where the two of us dance "closely",

It is only here in the "Brazilian Jamaica",

Where my affection is inseparable from you.
