Pirata José
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Um marinheiro chegou
No carnaval de Olinda
Em busca de seu grande amor
Uma princesa tão linda
Será que ele vem de Holanda?
Quem sabe de São Salvador?
Lisboa, de Angola, Loanda,
Em busca de seu grande amor?
Que brinca no bloco das flores
Nas virgens no alto da Sé
Seu nome é Maria das Dores
E ele é o pirata chamado José.
