Cibelle (pronounced: see-BELL-ee) is a musical force of nature. On this, her debut album, Cibelle for Ziriguiboom/Six Degrees, not only did she sing everything, the Brazilian also wrote or co-wrote virtually the entire disc, in addition to co-producing the record with her startlingly talented young countryman, Apollo 9. It's everything you'd expect from someone whose first appearance on recording was with the late, gifted Suba. Cibelle goes anywhere the Brazilian chanteuse's imagination takes her, exploring sensual bossa nova, downtempo electronica, samba, jazz, and beyond. The mixing, by Chris Harrison and Pete Norris, the men behind Morcheeba's sound, brings out her stunning vision. While Cibelle is undoubtedly a Brazilian album, it is just as much a jazz album. And an electronic album. And a spiritual album. And a humorous album in places too. Above all though, it's a natural album. The key sound-sculptor on the project is Sao Paulo switch-doctor Apollo 9, but Cibelle also peppered the project with a host of venerable musicians and guest vocalists, from percussionist Joao Parahyba of Trio Mocoto, Cuban pianist Pepe Cisneros, and guitarist and composer Ari Moraes to Ross Godfrey of Morcheeba, trombone player Bocato, and percussionist Eder Rocha of Mestre Ambrosio. She's also joined by bossa nova veteran vocalist Johnny Alf, rapper Xis, guitarist and bassist Richard Harrison, French electronic producer David Walters of Zimpala and bass players Serginho Carvalho and Robinho. Cibelle is a natural culmination for someone who admits she was always the "full-on arty kind." At six Cibelle insisted that her mother send her to music school, where she began attending guitar class. She took piano lessons until she was twelve, and a couple of years later "got into steady acting and singing at lunch break - everything was an excuse to sing. I joined Ford Models, but I didn't think much of it." That led to television commercials, but Cibelle, the trained actress, performed "mostly doing physical comedy, a character. I did some goofy stuff on MTV Brazil, the promo stuff - I even had a pie in the face once! And I loved it."

Singing remained a vital part of her life, but it was simply something she did for fun until a respected musician heard her one day and told her she was a singer. "That was the first time I took it seriously." Cibelle had found her passion. She'd go from club to club, jam session to jam session, singing a few songs in each. But her life wouldn't really change until she met Suba, the Yugoslavian producer and keyboard player with a vision of a new Brazilian sound. "I went to a jam session one night and I was smoking my Indian cigarettes, when this tall guy, dressed in black, not looking Brazilian at all, lit my smoke with his Zippo. That was Suba. Later I heard this crazy samba with really cool synth, that was weird and exactly what I was looking for, and it was him. A friend pulled me onstage to sing. At the end Suba said he'd been looking for a singer and would I come to his home studio the next day?" Cibelle sang on three tracks on Suba's groundbreaking album, Sao Paulo Confessions. That CD is one of most seminal and revered albums to come from the Brazilian electronic scene. Its erudite blend of traditional sounds and technological prowess was ahead of its time. Cibelle was the main vocalist on the album, enhancing tracks like the wonderful "Sereia," "Tantos Desejos" and "Felicidade," the latter of which placed the lyrics to Tom Jobim's classic bossa nova tune to a truly unique soundscape. After Suba's untimely death in 1999, Cibelle appeared on Suba Tributo, before spreading her wings and guesting with Juryman on Escape to Where, then offering her sultry voice to up-and-coming singer/songwriter/guitarist Celso Fonseca for his Natural album, (also on Ziriguiboom/Six Degrees Records). The stage was set for Cibelle to make her own record working with Brazilian electronica hero Apollo 9 and she was more than ready. She'd started writing long before she met Suba, "and some of those lyrics are on the album. Some I wrote the week they were recorded - and the same with the melodies. The whole process was really organic."

She also made sure the sessions were fun and different, "even the way we made samples. I'd close my eyes, put the needle on the record and say, 'Go Apollo, record!'" The jazzy, moody "Waiting" came about after she went to the supermarket "and recorded the cash register and the refrigerator. Next day I went to the studio, and Apollo asked, 'What have you got?' I said, 'Well, I've got this cash register and this fridge and I want to make a track from them.' So he created the bass line, and we started jamming on top. We started adding stuff to it. We both love mellotrons, and Apollo collects old keyboards. My vocal on the record is the original demo." She never set limits on herself. "When you're building a track, it's like picking ice creams, trying everything. That's how Suba worked, and that's how I learned to work. It's chaotic, but nice. Everything I listen to and like, I embrace it, and let it come out in my music. I want it to be there. The music happens by itself. I have some initial ideas." In fact, she has more than that; Cibelle was involved with writing nearly every track on Cibelle. The sole exception was Antonio Carlos Jobim's languid bossa nova, "Inutil Paisagem," subtly rearranged as a duet with bossa veteran Johnny Alf over mellotron, with Cibelle herself providing "naive scratching." The song was a natural choice for her, because "I love it. That was all I needed. I was translating the lyric for a friend, realized how much I loved it, and decided to record it." Her album is playful, sensual, familiar but unusual; the perfect distillation of her personality. It's organic and chameleonic, as only a Cibelle album can be, moving mellifluously through a variety of music styles. After all, this is a young woman who takes inspiration from Nina Simone, Tom Jobim, Bjork, 4hero, Ella Fitzgerald and Matmos. Although she's recently begun deejaying ("A little bit. It's more disc selecting. I can't really scratch."), she's eager to hit the road with a band. "I can't wait to start gigging. I need musicians around me, I need to be doing music and singing or at least shaking a shaker. I need live music."

Hate

I hate you so bad when I love you
'Cause I know you love me too but we gotta leave
I love you so much when you're near
Yet I hate you so bad when you make love at me

I hate you so bad when you're "nule"
'Cause I know you wanna say things but you never do
I love you so much when you're inside me
Yet I hate you so bad when your eyes I can't see

I love you so much
When I hate you so bad
'Cause I love you so much when I think I am sad
I love you so much
When I hate you so bad
'Cause I love you so much when I think I am sad

I hate you so bad when I love you
'Cause I know you love me too but we gotta leave
I love you so much when you're near
Yet I hate you so bad when you make love at me

I hate you so bad when you're "nule"
'Cause I know you wanna say things but you never do
I love you so much when you're inside me
Yet I hate you so bad when your eyes I can't see

Aah...

I love you so much
When I hate you bad
'Cause I love you so much when I think I am sad
I love you so much
When I hate you bad
'Cause I love you so much when I think I am sad

Uuuuuuuh...

I hate you so bad when I love you
'Cause I know you love me too but we gotta leave
I love you so much when you're near
Yet I hate you so bad when you make love at me

Aaah...

I hate you so bad when you're "nule"
'Cause I know you wanna say things but you never do
I love you so much when you're inside me
Yet I hate you so bad when your eyes I can't see

Don't know why I love you so much
'Cause I hate you so bad
When I think I love you in fact
Then I don't think that I really do
I don't know if I really do or do I
Oh my god I think I think
I love you
I do
I hate you
Or I love you...
Aaah...

Waiting

Sitting, staring
At my cigarette ash
Hmm...

Waiting hours
Smoke climbs to the stars
Thinking 'bout life

Thinking 'bout life
When am I gonna see
How is it
Going to be after I fly away, fly away...
Hmm...

Sitting, staring
At a cup of tea
Wandering, sweet time
My life is like the sea

Sitting, staring
At my cigarette ash

Waiting hours
Smoke climbs to stars

Thinking 'bout life
When am I gonna see
How is it
Going to be after I fly away
Hmm...

Sitting, staring
At a cup of tea
Wandering, sweet times
Life is like the sea
Life is like the sea
Life is like the sea

Tic toc tic toc
Tic toc, tic toc
What's goin' on
Tic toc tic toc
Should I hope for more
Tic toc, tic toc

Sitting, staring
At my cigarette ash
Hmm...

Waiting hours
Smoke climbs to the stars
Hmm...

Thinking 'bout life
When am I gonna see (Parapa...)
Or is it going to be
After I fly away
Parapa...

Tic tac tic tac
Flirting with time
Flirting with time

Waiting hours
Smoke climbs to the stars

Parapa...

Train

I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land
I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land
I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land
I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land

I'm spending days, over and over and over and over again
I go through the days, over and over and over and over and over and over again
Sitting in a train

I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land
I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land
I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land
I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land

Trees pass me by and take away a piece of me
Take me away within, deep down inside of me
Deep down, deep down, inside of me

I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land
I'm sitting in a train going down there, going where, going to no-land

It rides through a thousand dreams
Je vois, je vois, je vois le monde
Je regarde tout
Dans la vitesse moi, je suis partout
Je vois
Je regarde le monde
Je regarde tout
Dans la vitesse moi, je suis partout

Deep down
Inside
Of me

Je suis partout

Deep down
Inside

Where are you sugar
I need you and ???
I don't matter nevermind
You won't make me better

Maybe only after nine months
After I drink your tea
I saw you there
Looking at me
Sugar, sugar, oh my sugar pie
I'm gonna use you all over my body tonight
Oh honey I think I saw the bird
Oh my god!

Green Grass

( Tom Waits Cover )

Lay your head where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down in the green grass
Remember when you loved me

Come closer don't be shy
Stand beneath a rainy sky
The moon is over the rise
Think of me as a train goes by

Clear the thistles and brambles
Whistle 'Didn't He Ramble'
Now there's a bubble of me
And it's floating in thee

Stand in the shade of me
Things are now made of me
The weather vane will say
It smells like rain today

God took the stars and he tossed them
Can't tell the birds from the blossoms
You'll never be free of me
He'll make a tree from me

Don't say good bye to me
Describe the sky to me
And if the sky falls, mark my words
We'll catch mocking birds

Lay your head where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down in the green grass
Remember when you loved me
Remember when you loved me
Remember when you loved me

Phoenix

Help me, I'm falling down
Help me, I'm falling down the stair
Of my thoughts, my heart
Help, I'm slipping down
Help me

I'm slipping down, I feel my skin dry
Miles away they could be rebirth
They could become a cloud
They could be anyhow
Just a small portion of the ocean, so…

Give me something soft to cushion me
Give me some feathers so that I can stop it and glide
And glide up
Like a little birds and glide up

Like an eagle
With gigantic wings
Master the winds of change
Master the winds
Reborn again
Like a phoenix

So help me
Help me, I'm gonna fly
Help me
Help me, I'm gonna fly so high
Like a phoenix
Born again like a phoenix
Born again like a phoenix
Born again

( Caetano Veloso / Featuring Devendra Banhart )

I’m wandering round and round nowhere to go
I’m lonely in London London is lovely so
I cross the streets without fear
Everybody keeps the way clear
I know, I know no one here to say hello
I know they keep the way clear
I am lonely in London without fear
I’m wandering round and round here nowhere to go

While my eyes
Go looking for flying saucers in the sky

Oh Sunday, Monday, Autumm pass by me
And people hurry on so peacefully
A group approaches a policeman
He seems so pleased to pleace them
It’s glad to live at least and I agree
He seems so pleased at least
And it’s so good to live in peace and
Sunday, Monday, years and I agree
I agree

While my eyes
Go looking for flying saucers in the sky
While my eyes
Go looking for flying saucers in the sky

I choose no face to look at
Choose no way
I just happen to be here
And it’s ok
Green grass, blue eyes, gray sky, God bless
Silent pain and happiness
I came around to say yes, and I say

Green grass, blue eyes, gray sky, God bless
Silent pain and happiness
I came around to say yes, and I say

But my eyes
Go looking for flying saucers in the sky

City People

City people down the street
Dressed in black
Dressed in black

And foreheads weep under the burning sun
Smiles rising as they come out

Foreheads weep under the pointing time
Smiles rising as they come out
The buildings for the wind as I play dream
And I play dream

City people
Dressed in black
Walking down with lonely faces
Show me how
My life embraces me under the sun, under the sun
And guide me to other places
That all the places, that all the places feel
Like memory

I'm walking randomly kicking verses that start where I see
I write and talk, checking the sky and the height of
People in a black suit
People walking down the street
They seem to notice me riding high on my dreams

City people down the streets dressed in black
And the foreheads weep under the burning sun that embraces me
Smiles rising as they come out the buildings for the wind

As I play dream
As I play dream
As I play dream
As I play dream

He likes sipping his tea
Slowly from the tip of the tea pot
From the tip when the pot is hot
When he's not lonely...

I'm lonely not, he has it his peers
I'm dancing around hands and
He sheds some tears
When she's not there
He's quiet he is
He's quiet without she

Ce thé va t'il m'ôter ma toux
Le lourd chagrin d'un coeur fragile et fou
D'extases va t'il me rendre souple
Combler le vide, tenir le coup
Attendant une nouvelle aurore sentimentale
M'abreuve de ce liquide à la couleur pale
Mes vers vains se noient dans ma verveine
S'use mon latin à perdre haleine

Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string with reality

Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string with reality
Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string with reality

Mad man walking down her skin
The lady with the tea pot taking him within
He's going crazy with this long long
there walking down the street
With this flower shirt, his loneliness and his thirst for tea

Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string with reality

Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string with reality
Mad man walking down a string
Mad man walking down a string with reality

Flying High

I need to tell someone
How I am feeling
Moving my silence down
I don't feel ?no middle end?
Not a bit, just standing still
It's just this feeling course

This life

This life I am feeling

So many good times…

Seems like I'm falling
With this strangest feeling inside

This life

This life I am feeling

There's so much beauty in the simple things
There's so much light we ???
I feel like I'm flying
I am flying in my dreams
I'm flying
Good times, good times
I'm flying

So many good times…
I'm flying
So many good times…
I feel like I'm flying…
I'm flying

Train Station

For your circle days
A little bit of sunshine
Feel drops of water and footsteps
The soul pushes against the stairs alone
With pianos in your hair
That's when I wish for you in the train station

When there's only you with your sweating
On your forehead and
I wish you a sunny day, a clearer sky
And the warmth of soft hands
Against your cheeks

In the train station
Where I disappear
You can see me here in down there
With my pen in hand
I see you where you stand and I
Wish you good days
Good days

For your circle days
A little bit of sunshine
A little bit of sunshine
Just a little bit more sunshine (sunshine)
Just a little bit of sunshine
Just a little bit more

In the train station
I'll see you there behind your eyes
When you look at your own forehead and think
Is it what if I could not know a little bit only
I wish you a sunny day
Even if outside there's rain
I wish you a sunny day
Sunny, sunny day
I wish you a sunny day
Com muito, muito sol
(Very, very sunny)
Muito sol
Muito sol

Welcome

The planet has crashed
And all that's left is just a lamp of rock
Floating in space
With the jungle on top
And the ocean dripping into nowhere
And that's where you'll find the best show
In a whole galaxy, of course
Welcome to Las Vênus Resort Palace Hotel
I am your host
Sonja Khalecallon
I hope you'll enjoy the show
And please, don't feed the monkeys
Have a pleasant stay

Man From Mars

I saw he came from the stars
Came all the way from Mars
To my backyard
He had a shiny golden suit
His eyes were pale blue
He came to ask me out

A martian cherry
So I said, I really like your clothes
Where can I find my own

He said, you were mine, you were in my dreams
And I said, you are my prince that only fill in this
In this…

Lightworks

(Raymond Scott cover)

What is the magic that makes one's eyes
Sparkle and gleam, light up the skies
The name of the game is lightworks

What do you call a pair of eyes
That sparkle and gleam, light up the skies
The name of the game is lightworks

What do you call a pair of eyes
That sparkle and gleam, light up the skies
The name of the game is lightworks

How do you show those teasing lips
So they dazzle and shine, his heart does flips
The name of the game is lightworks

How do you blush so shyly
And make it linger
Yet boldly polish
Your ring finger
The name of the game is
Is lightworks

Lightworks is the game girls play
When they want someone to say
The name of the game is you, baby

Sad Piano

My fingers are stiff like hard clay
I have a sad piano
You won’t let me sing
My voice is as stones in cold rain

Caus' only you can stop me
From falling apart
And now I need to feel

Under neon disco ligths
We pogo through the night
In the dry ice I catch a stare
I feel the fingers through my hair
Love like science, alchemy
Tonight the nightclubs are laboratory
I need a lightning bolt to this heart
To kick start my Frankenstein soul
For life

Under neon disco ligths
We pogo through the night
In the dry ice I catch a stare
I feel the fingers through my hair
Love like science, alchemy

Mr and Ms Grey

(Written by Cibelle and Josh Weller)

Mr Lady Grey misses his girlfriend Sarah
Ms Earl Grey misses Earl Grey
The evening is grey and bitter like lemon

It's five o'clock in the afternoon
They've got cakes they've got scones
They're sitting in the living room
Wishing it was their drawing room
They wish, they had their personal harp player

The evenings are grey and bitter, like lemons

Mr Lady Grey wishes those kids would stay in school forever
Ms Earl Grey wants her daughter to wed a rich fellow

The evenings are grey and bitter, like lemons
The evenings are grey and bitter, like lemons

Ms Earl Grey goes to the "shops" every day
To get her betting cards and play
Maybe she'll win it someday
And come out as the real big spender

Mr Lady Grey goes to the dog tracks every day
To get his betting cards and play
Maybe he'll win it some day
And come out as the real big spender

It's morning, it's Saturday
They stay at home to watch replays
At the satellite TV that killed their dreams to spend the day in the park
Holding hands until after dark

One day their number made the mark
But their ticket came apart
And the' was the undoing
They dropped it in the brewing pot of brown tea
And they saw their dream dissolving

The evenings are grey and bitter, like lemons
The evenings are grey and bitter, like lemons
The evenings are grey and bitter, like lemons
The evenings are grey and bitter, like lemons

The Gun And The Knife

I have a gun and today you will die
Because you were my true love, mi corazón
I told you last night
I've carved your name in this bullet
I carried for you
I have a gun, oh my true love, will you fight me
And what will you do

I swear it to the sun
That I should stand in fight
I am in my skeleton
Steeling my knife
The small explosion in my heart
??? me thrill
I'd kill you
Kill you if you want me to
What will you do

I'd touch your face
And squeeze the trigger soft and slow
I'd push the knife into your breast
And your sweet blood would flow
I'd fall in 'til the death
You'd slowly close your eyes
Together we shall die

You've got steel in your bones
You've got fire in your heart
Yeah I've got power over you
You've got wings on your back
You've got the knowlegde of the stars
And I've got power over you

You've got fire in your bones
You've got steel in your heart
You've got power over me
I've got power over you
You've got fire in your bones
You've got the knowlegde of the stars
You've got power over me
Power over me (power over you)
You've got power over me (power over you)
Power over me

I shall take this as a sacrifice
I shall take this as a sacrifice
I'll need your ghost on the plane in the morning dust
I shall take this as a sacrifice
I'll need your ghost on the plane
I'll take your pale house
We'll dance, we'll dance

The bones of your fingers will lie like a mist on the air
The bones of my hands will sigh in the fog of your hair
We'll dance, we'll dance
We'll dance, we'll dance

One day I saw this man
We were cut from the same cloth
We had the same will
We had the same stars
Oh!

So I made made a promise
To grow my hair and wrap him
And I started braiding
My deep dark hair

And everyday the hair grows longer
And the longing is stronger
To feel his breath on my neck
Where did he go
He doesn't eve know me

My heart belongs to him
My soul belongs as well
He is the man in my dreams
Uh, I know it well
So I'll braid my hair
Until he's back
My long lost stare
I know he is out there
One day he'll come
Come back to me
And swim the seas
Of my deep dark hair

Oh!
I know
I know he'll come back
Caus' I made a promise
To grow my hair and wrap him
He's the man in my dreams
Uh, I know it well
So I will braid my hair
Until he's back
My long lost stare
I know he's out there
One day he'll come
Come back to me
And swim the seas
Of my deep dark hair

It's Not Easy Being Green

(Muppets cover)

It's not that easy being green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer being red or yellow or gold
Or something much more colorful like that

It's not easy being green
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
Not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky

But green is the color of Spring
And green can be cool and friendly-like
And green can be big like an ocean or important
Like a mountain or tall like a tree

When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why
Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful
And I think that's what I want to be

Bye Bye

Thank you for visiting Las Vênus Resort Palace Hotel
I hope you have enjoyed your stay
And I hope also that you come back often
A part to the end of the world
Yours truly
Sonja Khalecallon y Los Stroboscopious Luminous
Bye bye

*** Thanx a lot to Jose & Chogu from the forum for these lyrics ***

About a girl

I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do what you have a clue

I’ll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry but I
Can’t see you
Every night
Free
I do

I’m standing in your light
I do hope you have the time
I do pick up number two
I do keep my date with you

I’ll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry but I
Can’t see you
Every night
Free
I do

I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do what you have a clue

I’ll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry but I
Can’t see you
Every night
I do

Here she comes, here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes

Ela é carioca, she's a carioca*
Just see the way she walks
Nobody else can be what she is to me
I look and what do I see
When I look deep in her eyes
I can see the sea
A forgotten road
The caressing skies

And not only that, I'm in love with her
The most exciting way
It's written on my lips
Where her kisses stay
She smiles and all of a sudden
The world is smiling for me
And you know what else
She's a carioca
Ela é carioca

And not only that, I'm in love with her
The most exciting way
It's written on my lips
Where her kisses stay
She smiles and all of a sudden
The world is smiling for me
And you know what else
She's a carioca
Ela é carioca

Footloose

(Kenny Loggins cover / Hollywood, Mon Amour feat. Cibelle)

I've been working so hard
I'm punching my card
Eight hours, for what
Oh, tell me what I got
I've got this feeling
That time's just holding me down

I'll hit the ceiling
Or else I'll tear up this town
Town

Tonight I gotta cut loose
A footloose
Kick off my Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
Pull me off my knees
Jack, get back
C'mon, before we crack
Lose your blues
Everybody cut footloose

You're playing so cool
Obeying every rule
Dig way down in your heart
You're burning, yearning for some
Somebody to tell you
That life ain't passing you by

When I'm trying to tell you
It will if you don't even try
Try, try, try

Tonight I gotta cut loose
A footloose
Kick off my Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
SPull me off my knees
Jack, get back
C'mon, before we crack
Lose your blues
Everybody cut footloose

Tonight I gotta cut loose
Kick off my Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
Pull me off my knees
Jack, get back
C'mon, before we crack
Everybody cut
Lose your blues
Everybody cut footloose
Everybody, yeah

Kick off my Sunday shoes
Gotta cut loose
Footloose
Kick off my Sunday shoes
Kick off your Sunday shoes
Everybody cut footloose
Everybody
Everybody cut footloose

( Apollo Nove / Res Inexplicata Volans LP )

Hey, mister, mister
Can you be my mister right now
Mister right now tomorrow, too
That's how I save you

For now, know how
We are equal
Mister right now everyday
Something to say

Oh, mister man
Mister man
Can you be my mister right now?
My mister right now

You know babe
I wanna ???
Right there
???

Mister, mister
Mister right now

Refazenda

(Gilberto Gil / Som Brasil TV Show - 21/12/2007)

Hmmm...

Abacateiro, acataremos teu ato
Nós também somos do mato como o pato e o leão
Aguardaremos, brincaremos no regato
Até que nos tragam frutos teu amor, teu coração

Abacateiro, teu recolhimento é justamente
O significado da palavra temporão
Enquanto o tempo não trouxer teu abacate
Amanhecerá tomate e anoitecerá mamão

Ah...

Abacateiro, sabes ao que estou me referindo
Porque todo tamarindo tem o seu agosto azedo
Cedo, antes que o janeiro doce manga venha ser também
Abacateiro, serás meu parceiro solitário
Nesse itinerário da leveza pelo ar
Abacateiro, saiba que na refazenda
Tu me ensina a fazer renda que eu te ensino a namorar

Ah...

Refazendo tudo
Refazenda
Refazenda toda
Guariroba
Refazendo tudo
Refazenda
Refazenda toda
Guariroba
Refazendo tudo
Refazenda
Refazenda toda
Guariroba
