A casa lá na fazenda
The house out on the farm
A lua clareando a porta
The moon lighting up the door
Deixando um brilho claro
Leaving a clear glow
Nas pedras dos degraus
On the stones of the steps
Cristal de lua
Moon crystal
Pra dentro, Marta Saré

O rosário obrigatório

O jantar, lá na cozinha
The dinner, there in the kitchen
Todo dia à mesma hora
Every day at the same hour
As histórias de Dorinha

Pra dentro, Marta Saré
Go inside, Marta Saré
Pra dentro, Marta Saré
Go inside, Marta Saré
Pra dentro, Marta Saré
Go inside, Marta Saré
Pra dentro, pra dentro
Go inside, go inside
A lanterna azul partida
The broken blue lantern
A dor, a palmatória, a raiva
The pain, the ruler, the anger
A cantiga mais sentida
The most heartfelt song
Um galope de cavalo
A gallop of a horse
Moço Severino

Pra dentro, Marta Saré
Come on in, Marta Saré
Pra dentro, Marta Saré
Come on in, Marta Saré
Pra dentro, Marta Saré
Come on in, Marta Saré
Pra dentro

Bate forte o coração
The heart beats strong
Morre o peito magoado
The chest dies wounded
O sorriso mais sem jeito
The most awkward smile
Do primeiro namorado
Of the first boyfriend
Pra dentro, Marta Saré
Inward, Marta Saré
Pra dentro, Marta Saré
Inward, Marta Saré
Pra dentro, Marta Saré
Inward, Marta Saré
Pra dentro, pra dentro

Pra dentro, pra dentro
Inward, inward
Moço Severino contra o sol pra dentro
Young Severino against the sun inward
Marta Saré, pra dentro
Marta Saré, inward
Moço Severino contra o sol pra dentro
