Meu Ranchinho
Castilho e Cardeal
My Little Ranch
I abandoned
In the countryside my little ranch
And today I live
In this world so lonely
My country girl left me
She left one day, said goodbye
And left me crying
And hasn't returned until today
And today I live
In the retreat of longing
Very sad
Far away from the city
When I wake up I see them leaving
They are the gauchos who go through the fields
With their beautiful lassos
And the drizzle falling
When I remember
I get sad and sobbing
And the birds
In the grove singing
When I lie down I dream smiling
They are beautiful dreams with the beautiful country girl
I live happily and singing
In my verses of affection
Goodbye little ranch
That I left in the backlands
Goodbye woman
Who wounded my heart
I only ask the Moon to accompany me
The one I loved left and went away
And the wicked longing
Wanted to stay with me
