Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Não carrego o mal comigo

I don't carry evil with me

Nem odeio o semelhante

Nor do I hate my fellow

Nunca corro do perigo

I never run from danger

Pois em mim sou confiante

For in myself, I am confident


Tocando a minha boiada

Driving my cattle

No turbilhão de poeira

In the whirlwind of dust

Levando a jornada inteira

Taking the whole journey

Pensando no amor distante

Thinking about distant love

Ai, ai, ouvindo o som do berrante

Oh, oh, listening to the sound of the horn


Canto o amor e prego a paz

I sing about love and preach peace

Que trago no peito amante

Which I carry in my loving heart

A morte não me apraz

Death does not please me

Acho a vida interessante

I find life interesting


Deixando atrás a pousada

Leaving the inn behind

Passando na currutela

Passing through the small village

Vejo a deusa na janela

I see the goddess in the window

Me despeço e vou avante

I bid farewell and go forward

Ai, ai, ouvindo o som do berrante

Oh, oh, listening to the sound of the horn


A boiada se esparrama

The cattle spread out

Nas campinas verdejantes

In the green fields

No sentido de quem ama

In the direction of those who love

Voa longe num instante

It flies far away in an instant


A noite desce de manso

Night descends gently

Cobrindo de negro as estradas

Covering the roads in black

Não vejo a imagem amada

I don't see the beloved image

Do amor que é constante

Of the love that is constant

Ai, ai, ouvindo o som do berrante

Oh, oh, listening to the sound of the horn
