Boiadeiro Errante

I come from a distant place
I am a wandering cattleman who was born in that mountain range
My horse runs faster than my thoughts
He comes at a slow pace because no one is waiting for me

Playing the cattle, uê, uê, uê, ox
I'm going to cut the road, man
Playing the cattle, uê, uê, uê, ox
I'm going to cut the road

Play the horn with care Zé Vicente
Show these people the clarion of the alterosas
Grab the noose, don't give up, mate
Call the country dog, this cattle is dangerous

Look out the window, whoa, whoa, whoa, ox
What a beautiful maiden
Hey, man!
Look out the window, whoa, whoa, whoa, ox
What a beautiful maiden

I'm a cowboy, my people, what's up?
Let my cattle pass, I will fulfill my destiny
There in the lowlands I want to hear the seriema
To remember a little one I left there in Minas

She's guilty, uh, uh, uh, ox
I live on the roads
Hey, man!
She's guilty, uh, uh, uh, ox
I live on the roads

The river is calm and the cattle are swimming
See that ox bellowing Chico Bento run there
Lace the half-breed, save him from the piranhas
Take the cattle out of the camp so the journey can continue

Heading to Goiás, uê, uê, uê, ox
I left Minas Gerais, wow
Heading to Goiás, uê, uê, uê, ox
I left Minas Gerais, wow
