Prepare seu coração
Prepare your heart
Pras coisas que eu vou contar
For the things I'm going to tell
Eu venho lá do sertão
I come from the backlands
Eu venho lá do sertão
I come from the backlands
Eu venho lá do sertão
I come from the backlands
E posso não lhe agradar
And I may not please you
Aprendi a dizer não
I learned to say no
Ver a morte sem chorar
See death without crying
E a morte o destino tudo
And death is destiny everything
A morte o destino tudo
Death, destiny, everything
Estava fora de lugar
It was out of place
Eu vivo pra consertar
I live to fix
Na boiada já fui boi
In the herd I was once a bull
Mas um dia me montei
But one day I got together
Não por um motivo meu
Not for my own reason
Ou de quem comigo houvesse
Or whoever was with me
Que qualquer querer tivesse
That any want had
Porém por necessidade
But out of necessity
Do dono de uma boiada
From the owner of a herd
Cujo vaqueiro morreu
Whose cowboy died
Boiadeiro muito tempo
Cowboy for a long time
Laço firme braço forte
Firm loop strong arm
Muito gado muita gente
Lots of cattle, lots of people
Pela vida segurei
For life I held
Seguia como num sonho
Followed like in a dream
E boiadeiro era um rei
And the cowboy was a king
Mas o mundo foi rodando
But the world was spinning
Nas patas do meu cavalo
On my horse's feet
E nos sonhos que fui sonhando
And in the dreams that I was dreaming
As visões se clareando
The visions clearing
As visões se clareando
The visions clearing
Até que um dia acordei
Until one day I woke up
Então não pude seguir
So I couldn't follow
Valente lugar-tenente
Brave lieutenant
De dono de gado e gente
Owner of cattle and people
Porque gado a gente marca
Because cattle we mark
Tange ferra engorda e mata
Tange Ferra gets fat and kills
Mas com gente é diferente
But with us it's different
Se você não concordar
If you don't agree
Não posso me desculpar
I can't apologize
Não canto pra enganar
I don't sing to deceive
Vou pegar minha viola
I'm going to get my guitar
Vou deixar você de lado
I will leave you aside
Vou cantar noutro lugar
I'll sing somewhere else
Na boiada já fui boi
In the herd I was once a bull
Boiadeiro já fui rei
Boiadeiro I was once king
Não por um motivo meu
Not for my own reason
Ou de quem comigo houvesse
Or whoever was with me
E qualquer querer tivesse
And whatever you want
Por qualquer coisa de seu
For anything of yours
Por qualquer coisa de seu
For anything of yours
Querer mais longe que eu
Want further than me
