Manhã, tão bonita manhã De um dia feliz que chegou O sol no céu surgiu E em cada cor brilhou Voltou o sonho então Ao coração Depois deste dia feliz Não sei se outro dia haverá É nossa manhã, tão bela afinal Manhã de carnaval Canta o meu coração A alegria voltou, tão feliz A manhã desse amor

Morning, such a beautiful morning Of a happy day that has come The sun in the sky rose And every color shone Then the dream came back To the heart After this happy day I don't know if there will be another day It's our morning, so beautiful after all Carnival morning My heart sings Joy is back, so happy The morning of this love
