from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Cantilena
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
O Rei mandou me chamá
O Rei mandou me chamá,
P'ra casar com sua fia
Só de dóte ele me dava
Só de dóte ele me dava
Óró pa França Baia
Me alembrei do meu ranchinho,
Da róça do meu feijão
O Rei mandou me chamá
Ai! Seu Rei não quero não.
Ai! Seu Rei não quero não.
