Sabiá
Jaques Morelenbaum Lyrics

Minha terra tem palmeiras
Onde canta o Sabiá,
As aves, que aqui gorjeiam,
Não gorjeiam como lá.
Nosso céu tem mais estrelas,
Nossas várzeas têm mais flores,
Nossos bosques têm mais vida,
Nossa vida mais amores.
Em cismar, sozinho, à noite,
Mais prazer encontro eu lá

Minha terra tem palmeiras,
Onde canta o Sabiá.
Minha terra tem primores,
Que tais não encontro eu cá
Em cismar sozinho, à noite
Mais prazer encontro eu lá
Minha terra tem palmeiras,
Onde canta o Sabiá.
Não permita Deus que eu morra,
Sem que eu volte para lá
Sem que desfrute os primores
Que não encontro por cá
Sem qu'inda aviste as palmeiras,
Onde canta o Sabiá.
