Boiadeiro Errante

I come from a distant querência
I'm a wandering cowboy born in that mountain
My horse runs faster than thought
He comes at a slow pace because no one waits for me

Driving the cattle, hey, hey, hey, ox
I'm cutting through the road
Hey ox
Driving the cattle, hey, hey, hey, ox
I'm cutting through the road

Play the bugle with care Zé Vicente
Show these people the bugle of the highlands
Grab the lasso don't give up, buddy
Call the countryside dog, this cattle is dangerous

Look out the window, hey, hey, hey, ox
What a beautiful maiden
Hey ox
Look out the window, hey, hey, hey, ox
What a beautiful maiden

I'm a cowboy folks, what's up
Let my cattle pass, I'll fulfill my fate
Down in the lowlands I want to hear the seriema
To remember a little girl I left back in Minas

She's to blame, hey, hey, hey, ox
I live on the roads
Hey ox
She's to blame, hey, hey, hey, ox
I live on the roads

The river is calm and the cattle is swimming
See that ox bellowing, Chico Bento run there
Lasso the crossbreed, save him from the piranhas
Get the cattle out of the plains for the journey to continue

Heading to Goiás, hey, hey, hey, ox
I left Minas Gerais, hey ox
Heading to Goiás, hey, hey, hey, ox
I left Minas Gerais, hey ox
