Casa No Campo Lyrics in English Elis Regina

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Casa No Campo by Elis Regina from Portuguese to English.
Eu quero uma casa no campo
I want a house in the countryside
Onde eu possa compor muitos rocks rurais
Where I can compose many rural rock songs
E tenha somente a certeza
And only have the certainty
Dos amigos do peito e nada mais
Of true friends and nothing more
Eu quero uma casa no campo
I want a house in the countryside
Onde eu possa ficar no tamanho da paz
Where I can be at peace
E tenha somente a certeza
And only have the certainty
Dos limites do corpo e nada mais
Within the body's limits and nothing more
Eu quero carneiros e cabras
I want sheep and goats
Pastando solenes no meu jardim
Grazing solemnly in my garden
Eu quero o silêncio das línguas cansadas
I want the silence of tired tongues
Eu quero a esperança de óculos
I want hope with glasses
E meu filho de cuca legal
And my son with a cool head
Eu plantar e colher com a mão
I plant and harvest by hand
A pimenta e o sal
The pepper and the salt
Eu quero uma casa no campo
I want a house in the countryside
Do tamanho ideal, pau a pique e sapê
Of ideal size, wattle and daub and thatch
Onde eu possa plantar meus amigos
Where I can plant my friends
Meus discos e livros e nada mais
My records and books and nothing more
Onde eu possa plantar meus amigos
Where I can plant my friends
Meus discos, meus livros e nada mais
My records, my books and nothing more
Onde eu possa plantar meus amigos
Where I can plant my friends
Meus discos e livros e nada mais
My records and books and nothing more

Sapê refers to a type of grass used for thatching roofs, especially in traditional or rustic homes. It's a specific and evocative word that paints a picture of a simple, natural dwelling.

In the context of "Casa No Campo" (House in the Country), Elis Regina dreams of a peaceful, self-sufficient life away from the city. Mentioning "pau a pique e sapê" (wattle and daub and thatch) highlights the desire for a humble, eco-friendly home, reinforcing the song's theme of returning to nature and simplicity.
