Ciranda (Wave-dance)

Original Song, "Quando a morena" composed by Gabriel Levy
English lyrics by Manman:
Come dance with me
Dance me a new way of life
In living fully
one shall embrace
Ah~ one shall embrace your love
Time will truly slip away
Ciran-da! Come dance with me!

I learned the dance from my friend Estêvão Marques and here is a quote from his book "Colherim"

"Ciranda is a festivity that usually takes place by the beach. In a circle, everyone holding hands, the dance appear to simulate the movement of waves. Rocking like this, the party last all night."
