Madalena
Caio Mesquita featuring Ivan Lins Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
O meu peito percebeu
Que o mar é uma gota
Comparado ao pranto meu
Fique certa
Quando o nosso amor desperta
Logo o sol se desespera
Oh, Madalena
O que é meu não se divide
Nem tão pouco se admite
Quem do nosso amor duvide
Até a lua
Se arrisca num palpite
Que o nosso amor existe
Forte ou fraco
Alegre ou triste
Oh, Madalena
O meu peito percebeu
Que o mar é uma gota
Comparado ao pranto meu
Fique certa
Quando o nosso amor desperta
Logo o sol se desespera
E se esconde lá na serra
Oh, Madalena
O que é meu não se divide
Nem tão pouco se admite
Quem do nosso amor duvide
Até a lua
Se arrisca num palpite
Que o nosso amor existe
Forte ou fraco
Alegre ou triste
Oh, Madalena
Oh, Madalena
Oh, Madalena
Oh, Madalena
Madalena, Madalena
Oh Ma, oh Madá
Oh Madalê Lê Lê Lê Lê Lena
Oh Ma, oh Madá
Oh Madalê Lê Lê Lê Lê Lena
Oh Ma, oh Madá
Oh Madalê Lê Lê Lê Lê Lena
Oh Ma, oh Madá
Oh Madalê Lê Lê Lê Lê Lena
