Não há ninguém que destrua
Este amor que nos abrasa
Cada um gosta da rua
Onde tem a sua casa
Quem na minha alfama passa
Vê-a toda embandeirada
Porque o são João da praça
Porque o são João da praça
Assentou praça na armada
No alto mar, fomos nós sempre os primeiros
Com alfama a palpitar em fardas de marinheiros
Porque, afinal, foi destas pobres vielas
Que saiu o Portugal que embarcou nas caravelas
Quem quiser, veja em espelhos
Quem não pede é porque é mudo
Vá à rua dos remédios
Que há remédio para tudo
Meu amor, amor sem fé
Deixou-me por coisa pouca
Mora nas cruzes da sé
E eu faço cruzes na boca
No alto mar, fomos nós sempre os primeiros
Com alfama a palpitar em fardas de marinheiros
Porque, afinal, foi destas pobres vielas
Que saiu o Portugal que embarcou nas caravelas
