Sem Diploma
Jayme Caetano Braun
Without a Diploma
Blessed is the one who studies
because studying is important,
although the ignorant
always has a saint who helps,
sometimes luck changes,
when there is a strong saint,
each one seeks a direction,
that's why I'm not embarrassed
- the one who puts culo
is the same one who puts luck!
My great-great-grandfather was a border guard,
my great-grandfather a horse tamer,
my grandfather - a wire fence builder
and my father was a truck driver;
I didn't have money left
to attend college,
but I had the happiness
thanks to our Lord
and became a payador
to preserve our identity!
Studying is very nice
and even very necessary,
but this primary singer,
crossing the infinite land,
continues - at a trot,
even without a diploma
and I feel content,
what is mine - no one takes from me,
because I doubt that a diploma
makes a donkey a lawyer!
How beautiful it is to graduate
in a college hall,
although this quality
does not turn good into bad,
Jayme Caetano Braun,
does not stray from this line,
inspiration does not run out
nor does it make me more cruel,
I earned a ring
the gaucho one - and it's enough!
