Uirapuru

Once on a ride
I was going down the Paraná
And the caboclo rowing
Wouldn't stop talking
Ah, Ah, wouldn't stop talking
Ah, Ah, what a talkative caboclo

He told me about the werewolf
The water mother of tajá
He spoke of Jurutahy
Who smiles at the moon
Ah, Ah, who smiles at the moon
Ah, Ah, what a talkative caboclo

My dear caboclinho
Find one for me
I'm dying to catch one like that
The devil left and didn't want to give it to me
I'll save my little money to be able to buy

But on the day I buy it
This caboclo will suffer
I'll unsettle his sweetheart
Ah, Ah, his sweetheart
Ah, Ah, just forget about it

Once on a ride
I was going down the Paraná
And the caboclo rowing
Wouldn't stop talking
Ah, Ah, wouldn't stop talking
Ah, Ah, what a talkative caboclo

He made fun of apparitions
And killed a surucucu
He swore with bravado
That he caught Uirapuru
Ah, Ah, that he caught Uirapuru
Ah, Ah, what a tempting caboclo

My dear caboclinho
Find one for me
I'm dying to catch one like that
The devil left and didn't want to give it to me
I'll save my little money to be able to buy

But on the day I buy it
This caboclo will suffer
I'll unsettle his sweetheart
Ah, Ah, his sweetheart
Ah, Ah, just forget about it
