Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Na fazenda onde eu nasci ali mesmo eu fui criado

On the farm where I was born, there I was raised

Na escolinha da fazenda onde fui matriculado

In the little school of the farm where I was enrolled

A filha do meu patrão sentava ali do meu lado

The boss's daughter sat right next to me

Juramos de nos casar e um do outro ser amado

We vowed to marry and love each other


Eu era bom empregado querido do fazendeiro

I was a good employee, dear to the farmer

Aprendi lidar com gado meu serviço era campeiro

I learned to deal with cattle; my job was as a herder

Um cachorro policial eu tinha por companheiro

I had a police dog as my companion

Que na hora do perigo o cão chegava primeiro

When danger came, the dog arrived first


Pedi ela em casamento o velho disse que sim

I asked her to marry me, the old man said yes

No dia do matrimônio que dia lindo pra mim

On the day of matrimony, what a beautiful day for me

Morar em casa bonita na frente um lindo jardim

Living in a beautiful house, in front of a lovely garden

E ter a mulher mais linda pra viver junto de mim

And having the most beautiful woman to live with me


Um dia a mulher me disse escute o que eu digo agora

One day, the woman told me, listen to what I say now

Não quero mais o cachorro na casa que a gente mora

I no longer want the dog in the house where we live

Vai ter que matar o cão se não quer que eu vá embora

You have to kill the dog if you don't want me to leave

Chamei o pobre cachorro pra matar na mesma hora

I called the poor dog to kill him right away


Eu peguei minha canoa o cachorro acompanhou

I took my canoe, and the dog followed

Ao passar na correnteza minha canoa virou

When passing through the current, my canoe overturned

O meu sentido sumiu porque a água me afogou

I lost my sense because the water drowned me

Estava quase morrendo o cachorro me salvou

I was almost dying; the dog saved me


Eu ia matar o cão como se fosse um inimigo

I was going to kill the dog as if he were an enemy

Mas foi ele quem salvou-me daquele triste perigo

But he was the one who saved me from that sad danger

Hoje em dia sou feliz e com alegria digo

Today, I am happy and with joy, I say

Tenho uma mulher amada também um cachorro amigo

I have a beloved woman and also a loyal dog
