Menina do alto da serra

Menina do alto da serra ("High ridge girl"), also known in Portugal just as Menina and for this reason sometimes entitled Menina (do alto da serra), was the Portuguese entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1971, performed in Portuguese by Tonicha.

The song is a ballad, with Tonicha describing a simple country girl. She presents the girl as an ideal to which everyone should aspire in their lives.
