English Translation

Mandei fazer um alambrado bem ligeiro

I had a quick fence made

Com um caboclo destorcido, meu amigo

With a twisted caboclo, my friend

Disse pra ele, tenho pressa companheiro

I told him, I'm in a hurry, companion

Quero no sistema antigo numa semana fica pronto, eu já lhe digo

I want it in the old way, I'll tell you in a week it'll be ready

(Ruque ruque tá furado, suque suque tá socado

(Ruque ruque is pierced, suque suque is packed

E gingue gingue tá estirado

And gingue gingue is stretched

Oiga serviço bonito, já tá pronto patrãozito

Listen, it's a beautiful job, it's already done, boss

Vou lhe entregar o alambrado)

I'll deliver the fence to you)

Doze ou quinze paus de nobre numa quadra

Twelve or fifteen noble logs in a block

Quatro tramas de angico em cada vão

Four angico weavings in each span

Arame, liso e farpado a meia fio

Wire, smooth and barbed, halfway through

Nas estampas de um moirão numa semana fica pronto um quarteirão

In the prints of a post, in a week, a block will be ready

Um palanque de sapata numa laje

A post on a slab

Se cruzar um terreno brabo não faz mal

If it crosses rough terrain, it doesn't matter

Um pauzito bem cravado a macete

A little stick well driven with a mallet

Quando crusa o manancial numa semana e já termina o material

When it crosses the watercourse, in a week, the material is finished
