Lamento De Carreiro
Peão Carreiro e Praense
Carreiro's Lament
Longing, so much longing
For an ox cart singing
Climbing up and down the hills
Carrying a heavy load
Go herd, go herd
Was the shout of the carreiro, on the roads
Go herd, go herd, go herd
The master carreiro cries
Lamenting the evolution
His cart no longer sang
Silencing the backlands
Go herd, go herd
Was the shout of the carreiro, on the roads
Go herd, go herd, go herd
I was still a child
But I remember very well
The things of our land
That today the backlands don't have
Go herd, go herd
Was the shout of the carreiro, on the roads
Go herd, go herd, go herd
