e lá eu estava...

                                                           Faz tempo que a gente cultiva

                                                           A mais linda roseira que há

                                                           Mas eis que chega a roda viva

                                                           E carrega a roseira prá lá...

                                                           No peito a saudade cativa

                                                           Faz força pro tempo parar
                                                           Mas eis que chega a roda viva
                                                           E carrega a saudade prá lá ...

                                                        Roda mundo, roda gigante
                                                        Roda moinho, roda pião
                                                        O tempo rodou num instante
                                                        Nas voltas do meu coração...
