Mate de Esperança

I will prepare a thick mate of hope
With the green herb from the green of your gaze
Take a big sip
And get everything ready
To wait for you

And in my ranch that was dark with longing
I will paint a picture of joy
To impress you and please you
If you come back, girl

I made a promise to the little black one
I made a promise to the black shepherd
I offered tobacco leaves and a sip of cane
As an offering
Just for him to help me
Just for him to help me find a way
And a strong lasso to hold you, hold you

Oh! Oh! Oh!
And then without bitterness
I can even feel what will come next
Oh! Oh! Oh!
I will heat the water and happily serve
A mate for the two of us
