Altos castelos de branco luar
Linda menina que vai casar
Torres cinzentas que dão para o vento
Dentro do meu pensamento
Eu lá na serra não sou ninguém
Se fores prà guerra eu irei também
Irei também numa barca bela
Cinta vermelha e saia amarela
Na praia nova caiu uma estrela
Moças trigueiras ide atrás dela
Rola rolinha garganta de prata
Canta-me uma serenata
Eu lá na serra não sou ninguém
Se fores prà guerra eu irei também
Irei também numa barca bela
Cinta vermelha e saia amarela
Um cavalinho de crina na ponta
Leva à garupa uma bruxa tonta
Duas meninas a viram passar
Mesmo à beirinha do mar
Eu lá na serra não sou ninguém
Se fores prà guerra eu irei também
Irei também numa barca bela
Cinta vermelha e saia amarela
