Bate forte o tambor {Let the drums roll}
Eu quero é {What I want is}

Que meu boi balança {That makes my "boi" swing}
E o povo de fora {And people from all over}
Vém para brincar {Come join the dance}

As barrancas de terras caidas {The crumbling soil}
Faz barrento o nosso rio-mar {Is clouding our river sea (the Amazone)}

Amazonas, rio da minha vida {Amazone, river of my life}
Imagem tão linda {Lovely image}
Que meu Deus criou {Of God's creation}

Uniu os caboclos {You brought together the "caboclos"}
Construiu o amor {You created love}

The song is about the Amazon River which created love for everything
So let the drums roll. What I want is the sound of tic tic tac. People
from all around come and join the dance.
