Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Eu nasci numa barraca

I was born in a tent

Levo a vida de cigano

I live life like a gypsy

Sempre tocando boiada

Always herding cattle

Pelas estradas viajando

Traveling along the roads


Eu deixei a minha terra

I left my land

Desde o tempo de dez anos

Since I was ten years old

E saí pelo mundo afora

And I went out into the world

Procurando o chão goiano

Looking for the Goiano ground


Minha besta marchadeira

My trotting beast

Minha riata relampeando

My lightning-fast lasso

Minha capa importada

My imported cape

Meu chapéu americano

My American hat


Em todos os lugar que eu chego

Every place I arrive

As moça fica gostando

The girls start liking me

Mas eu vou tocando boiada

But I keep herding cattle

Procurando o chão goiano

Looking for the Goiano ground


Minha vida está forgada

My life is settled

Meu dinheiro está sobrando

I have money left over

É no Banco do Brasil

It's at Banco do Brasil

Que estou depositando

That I am depositing


Já mandei muitos presentes

I've sent many gifts

Pra meu povo conterrâneo

To my fellow countrymen

Dei notícia desse homem

I've informed about this man

Que procura o chão goiano

Who seeks the Goiano ground
