Num povoado igual a tantos com a Santa Rita, 'La Virgenzita'

In a village like so many with Santa Rita, 'La Virgenzita'

Num povoado igual a tantos, Simon Bolívar ou Masoller

In a village like so many, Simon Bolívar or Masoller

Num povoado de simples vida, talvez pampero el Vichadero

In a village of simple life, perhaps pampero El Vichadero

Num povoado de simples vida, destes fronteiros, outro qualquer

In a village of simple life, of these borderlands, any other


Aonde a taboa guarda o segredo, o amor, o medo

Where the board keeps the secret, the love, the fear

E o doce enredo do coração de uma mulher

And the sweet plot of the heart of a woman

Aonde a taboa guarda o segredo e o doce enredo

Where the board keeps the secret and the sweet plot

Do olhar sereno e o coração de uma mulher

Of the serene gaze and the heart of a woman


Da dura vida, tão desprovida, e da ferida do mal de amor

From the harsh life, so devoid, and the wound of the love malady

Surge a beleza mesmo que ainda seja brejeira essa eterna flor

Beauty emerges even if it is still rustic, this eternal flower

Naquél ranchito, fiel ranchito, que por bendito me aquerenciou

In that small ranch, faithful ranch, which, by being blessed, sheltered me

Busquei pra alma a luz bem-vinda que em mim ficou

I sought for the soul the well-received light that stayed in me
