lyrics

ESTRELA ACALANTO ( Star Lullaby)
Portuguese Lyrics with English Translation below

Estrela, estrela, o meu coração
espelha, espelha, o sol do sertão
centelha, centelha, nesta imensidão
semeia, semeia , o meu coração

Desci o São Francisco
pra ver o meu amor
lampejo de corisco, lampião se apagou
vem cá, vem cá, vem cá, vou não
vem cá - vou lá - baiê, baiê, baião

Estrela, estrela, o meu coração
espelha, espelha, o sol do sertão
que queima, que queima
racha todo o chão
e deixa, e deixa
rastros de ilusão

Subi o São Francisco
em plena viração
barulho de corisco
ascende o lampião
vem cá, vem cá, vem cá, vou não
vem cá – vou lá - baiê, baiê, baião

Estrela, estrela, o meu coração
espelha, espelha o sol do sertão
um sonho de menino
canto d’arribação
a renda do vestido
á Virgem uma oração
vem cá, vem cá, vem cá – Vou não
vem cá – vou lá - baiê, baiê, baião 

Mmmm...serena, serena, o meu coração 

STAR LULLABY - TRANSLATION

Star, star, my heart
reflects, reflects, the sun of the desert
spark, spark, in this immensity
sows, sows , my heart

I went down the river San Francisco
to see my love
flash of lightning, lantern goes out
come here, come here, come here, I will not
come here - I'll go there - baion, baion, baion

Star, star, my heart
reflects, reflects, the sun of the desert
that burns, burns
cracks all over the ground
and leaves and leaves
traces of illusion

I went up the river San Francisco
in full storm
sound of thunder
light the lantern
come here, come here, come here, I will not
come here - I'll go there - baion, baion, baion

Star, star, my heart
reflects, reflects, the sun of the desert
a boy’s dream
singing of the arribacao dove
the lace of the dress
to the Virgin a prayer
come here, come here, come here, I will not
come here - I'll go there,baion, baion, baion

 Mmmm...serene, serene, my heart
