English Translation

Fundão de campo, eguada solta, escramussando na invernada

Hillside of the field, loose herd, scrambling in the winter pasture

Estância grande bagual criado a campo fora com a manada

Large ranch, wild horse raised in the field with the herd

Setenta quadra de campo aberto eguada xucra e caborteira

Seventy blocks of open field, wild herd and mare

Criada solta de pelo fino pelos varzedo desta fronteira

Free-range, fine-haired livestock in the meadows of this borderland


Indiada taura, índio ginete, garrão de potro espora atada

Tough folks, indigenous riders, hindquarters of colts with tied spurs

Na primavera corda sovada pra tira as cosca da bagualada

In spring, a lasso used to remove the hides from the wild herd


Buçal torcido, rédea bem larga, bocal sovado pros cornilhudos

Twisted bit, very wide rein, beaten bit for the horned ones

Rabicho forte trançado de oito pra tira cisma destes beiçudos

Strong braided tail of eight to remove stubbornness from these animals

Galpão da estância, fogo bem grande, cambona quente, cuia cevada

Ranch shed, big fire, hot thermos, gourd with mate

Final de tarde, Sol vai entrando, foi mais um dia de campereada

End of the day, the sun is setting, it was another day of ranching
