Dorival Caymmi

Dorival Caymmi (April 30, 1914 – August 16, 2008) was a Brazilian singer, songwriter, actor, and painter active for more than 70 years beginning in 1933. He contributed to the birth of Brazil's bossa nova movement, and several of his samba pieces, such as "Samba da Minha Terra", "Doralice" and "Saudade da Bahia", have become staples of Música Popular Brasileira. Equally notable are his ballads celebrating the fishermen and women of Bahia, including "Promessa de Pescador", "O Que É Que a Baiana Tem?", and "Milagre". Caymmi composed about 100 songs in his lifetime, and many of his works are now considered to be Brazilian classics. Both Brazilian and non-Brazilian musicians have covered his songs. more »

Dora, rainha do frevo e do maracatu 
Dora, rainha cafuza de um maracatu 
Te conheci no recife
Dos rios cortados de pontes 
Dos bairros, das fontes coloniais
Dora, chamei
Ò Dora ò Dora
Eu vim à cidade 
Pra ver você passar 
Ò Dora 
Agora no meu pensamento eu te vejo requebrando 
Pra cá,ora pra lá 
Meu bem!
Os clarins da banda militar, tocam para anunciar 
Sua Dora, agora vai passar
Venham ver o que é bom 
Ò Dora, rainha do frevo e do maracatu 
Ninguém requebra, nem dança, melhor que tu
