Quando olhei a terra ardendo
When I looked at the burning earth
Qua fogueira de são joão
Wed bonfire of St. John
Eu preguntei a deus do céu, uai
I asked the god of heaven, uai
Por que tamanha judiação
Why such a jewment
Eu preguntei a deus do céu, uai
I asked the god of heaven, uai
Por que tamanha judiação
Why such a jewment
Que braseiro, que fornaia
What a brazier, what a fornaia
Nem um pé de prantação
Not a praetor foot
Por farta d'água perdi meu gado
By the water I lost my cattle
Morreu de sede meu alazão
Died of my sorrel
Por farta d'água perdi meu gado
By the water I lost my cattle
Morreu de sede meu alazão
Died of my sorrel
Inté mesmo a asa branca
Inté even the white wings
Bateu asas do sertão
Hit wings of the backtão
Intonce eu disse a deus rosinha
Intonce I told god rosinha
Guarda contigo meu coração
Keep my heart with you
Intonce eu disse a deus rosinha
Intonce I told god rosinha
Guarda contigo meu coração
Keep my heart with you
Hoje longe muitas léguas
Today far away many leagues
Numa triste solidão
In a sad solitude
Espero a chuva cair de novo
I wait for the rain to fall again
Para mim vortar pro meu sertão
For me to vortar to my backcountry
Espero a chuva cair de novo
I wait for the rain to fall again
Para mim vortar pro meu sertão
For me to vortar to my backcountry
Quando o verde dos teus olhos
When the green of your eyes
Se espalhar na prantação
Spread out in the weebyt
Eu te asseguro, não chore não, viu
I assure you, don't cry, don't
Que eu vortarei, viu, meu coração
That I will vorti, saw, my heart
Eu te asseguro, não chore não, viu
I assure you, don't cry, don't
Que eu vortarei, viu, meu coração
That I will vorti, saw, my heart
