SÃO JOÃO ERA MENINO
SAINT JOHN WAS A BOY
Dm C A
São João era menino
E andava na floresta
Louvando ao Pai Eterno
E a Rainha desta festa
O Rei Salomão me disse
Que é preciso caprichar
Que o tempo está chegando
E vamos se apresentar
Soloína Pedra Fina
No jardim do beija-flor
Cantemos todo dia
Consagrando este louvor
Janaína, flor menina
Currupipipiraguá
Com amor e alegria
Tem a vida a festejar
Saint John was a boy
And he walked in the forest
Praising the Eternal Father
And the Queen of this celebration
The King Solomon told me
We need to strive
Because the time is arriving
And we need to present ourselves
Soloina fine stone
In the garden of the humming bird
We sing all day
Consecrating this praise
Janaína, little girl flower
Currupipipiraguá
With love and happiness
We have to celebrate
refrain, sung twicerefrain, sung three or more times
Hymn 7 of 52.
