Pescaria

Pego minhas redes, vou pro rio pescar

I take my nets, go to the river to fish

Levo essa morena e a viola pra pontear

I take this brunette and the guitar to strum

Entro na canoa, atravesso pro lado de lá

I get in the canoe, cross over to the other side

Com essa morena do lado, pesco até o dia clarear

With this brunette by my side, I fish until the day breaks

Jogo a tarrafa, ela segura o samburá

I throw the casting net, she holds the basket

Quando pego o peixe, nele colocar

When I catch the fish, I place it in

Logo mais a meia-noite, o frio começa a apertar

Shortly after midnight, the cold begins to tighten

Saimos pra margem do rio, largamos os peixes pra lá

We go to the riverbank, leave the fish there

Acendo um fogo pra nós dois se aquecer

I light a fire for both of us to warm up

Preparo um cafezinho, espero o dia amanhecer

I make a little coffee, wait for the day to dawn

Pego a viola e faço um ponteado

I grab the guitar and play a tune

Sentados na beira do rio

Sitting on the riverbank

Com viola e violão

With guitar and guitar

Afinados.

Tuned.
