Sapopemba
Comadre Fulozinha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eu vi
Sapopemba lá no pé de macaíba
Eu vi
Laranjinha no meio do manguezal

Eu vi
Pitombeira no açude de Apipucos
Eu vi
Baronesa dar flor no canavial

Eu vi
Flor de lírio lá na porta da vendinha
Eu vi
Pé de fruta no meio do areal

Eu vi
Acerola em pé de jabuticaba
Eu vi
Cravo branco na roseira do quintal
