Eu não sei como te chamas
Ó Maria Faia
Nem que nome te hei-de eu pôre
Ó Maria Faia, ó Faia Maria
Cravo não que tu és Rosa
Ó Maria Faia
Rosa não, que tu és flore
Ó Maria Faia, ó Faia Maria
Não te quero chamar Cravo
Ó Maria Faia
Que te estou a engrandecere
Ó Maria Faia, ó Faia Maria
Chamo-te antes Espelho
Ó Maria Faia
Onde espero de me vere
Ó Maria Faia, ó Fada Maria
O meu amor abalou
Ó Maria Faia
Deu n´uma linda despedida
Ó Maria Faia, ó Faia Maria
Abarcou-me a mão direita
Ó Maria Faia
Adeus ó perenda querida
Ó Maria Faia, ó Faia Maria
