Vais ganhar um colar, meu amor, um colar de conchinhas do mar... Mais branquinho que o luar, vais ganhar um vestido de espuma do mar... Vais descer devagar, vais comigo descer para o fundo do mar... Meu amor, meu amor, ah! Meu amor, vais brincar Com peixinhos e flores e estrelas do mar... E lá dentro do mar, meu amor, meu amor, tu vais vêr Iamanjar... Iamanjar! A mãe d'água encantada que é dona do mar! Ah!
