Sorta Cavalo Lyrics Translation in English
Régis MarquesPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Trago a poeira troteada a cavalo
I bring the dust trodden on horseback
Dos ventanas que domei
From the windows that I tamed
Sina tosca na forja da lida
Rough sign in the forge of the work
Com esta vida me criei
With this life, I grew up
Cada bufo, corcóvio, mangaço
Every snort, buck, and wild move
Doy laçasso engarfando o garrão
I give a throw, hooking the hock
Se o rebolcar é muy violento
If the rolling is too violent
Eu me arrebento de crina na mão
I break myself with the mane in my hand
Sorta o cavalo tchê, sorta o cavalo vai
Release the horse, mate, release the horse, go
Eu fui criado la na costa do Uruguai
I was raised there on the coast of Uruguay
Sorta o cavalo tchê, sorta o cavalo vai
Release the horse, mate, release the horse, go
Trago de herança a sina tosca do meu pai
I bring as an inheritance the rough sign of my father
Sorta o cavalo tchê, pode sortá
Release the horse, mate, you can release
A minha vida é da laçasso e corcoviar
My life is about throwing the lasso and bucking
Sorta o cavalo tchê, sorta o cavalo vai
Release the horse, mate, release the horse, go
Eu fui criado la na costa do Uruguai
I was raised there on the coast of Uruguay
Sorta o cavalo tchê, sorta o cavalo vai
Release the horse, mate, release the horse, go
Trago de herança a sina tosca do meu pai
I bring as an inheritance the rough sign of my father
Sorta o cavalo tchê, pode sortá
Release the horse, mate, you can release
A minha vida é da laçasso e corcoviar
My life is about throwing the lasso and bucking
Fronteriço que doma é ginete
Borderman who tames is a rider
Mandalete na espreita do pealo
Mandalete in the lookout for the herd
Benze a doma num gesto bem-dito
Bless the taming in a well-spoken gesture
Ante um grito de sorta cavalo
Before a shout of release, horse
Cada bufo, corcóvio, mangaço
Every snort, buck, and wild move
Doy laçasso engarfando o garrão
I give a throw, hooking the hock
Se o rebolcar é muy violento
If the rolling is too violent
Eu me arrebento de crina na mão
I break myself with the mane in my hand
