Flora
Omitir Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Vento no norte abraça
O orvalho que cai em graça.
cfugenta a usura do burgo
Por esta gente eu te purgo.

Testa de porco andante
Com muita pança de ocupa,
Da urbe se sente importante
Na flora leva ca'luta.

Brio erguido
Gana noum passa.
Povo ferido
Expele a farsa.

Dançom no alto da flora
Uvas em cale robusto,
Colhem-se em cesto justo
Ânimo para quem chora.

Senhoras gritam revolta
Com vestes de sangue vivo
Contra o burguês que anda à solta
c larapiar o que lhe noum é merecido.

Brio erguido
Gana noum passa.




Povo ferido
Expele a farsa
