Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Anunciando festa do boi
Guerreiros se preparando
Arcos e flechas para guerrear
As tribos na grande festa
Caras pintadas grito no ar
Bandeiras se agitando
Eu grito eu danço e canto
Bato palminhas pro meu boi bumba
Cunha a moça mais bela
Vai te encantar
Vem suas lendas com seus cantos
Tem a floresta seus encantos
Paje com seu ritual já vai começar
Heia, Heia, La La, La La, La La,
Heia, Heia é festa do boi bumba
Heia, Heia, La La, La La, La La,
Heia Heia, entra na dança e festa
De boï bumba.
