Foi Em Xambioa

1973
In Araguaia
Operations
Against the guerrilla
Real missions
The infantry
Went to defend
Our sovereignty

It was in Xambioa, it was in Xambioa
In Araguaia in Xambioa
Whoever has never heard, listen up
Tales of glory that I will now tell

The guerrilla was no joke
It was patrol, patrol all night long
And some of us were fearless
Danger everywhere, the patrol

And at every moment a freezing sign
Fatigue, thirst, and hunger
Mosquitoes, swamps, and mud

Even so, I held my ground
My son, if someone asks you
If your father was in Xambioa
Say proudly that I was there
