Canta meu povo, canta
Canta que eu quero ver
Canta meu povo, canta
Que alegria de viver
Oh moça da ribeira
Canta as águas do teu rio
Bate a roupa inteira
Bate, bate, não tem frio
E é uma brincadeira
Quando chega à noitinha
São tantas lavadeiras
A cantar pelo caminho
Canta meu povo, canta
Canta que eu quero ver
Canta meu povo, canta
Que alegria de viver
Tudo na vida passa
Vai o velho, vem o novo
Mais nunca se apaga
A alegria do meu povo
Canta os pescadores
Canta povo da Serra
Canta os lavradores
Canta o chão da nossa Terra
Canta meu povo, canta
Canta que eu quero ver
Canta meu povo, canta
Que alegria de viver
Se um dia puder
Eu também quero cantar
Junto da minha gente
Que não sabe o que é chorar
E eu tenho saudades
De ouvir à noitinha
Cantar pela verdade
As moças da ribeirinha
Canta meu povo, canta
Canta que eu quero ver
Canta meu povo, canta
Que alegria de viver
