Roubando a Goiana

(O Praião, let's steal the Goiana?
Let's go to the beach,
let's bring these girls to São Paulo
to end our suffering)

To steal a Goiana
I bought in the state of Minas
a dumb axe,
I named it cleaning
I treat her in the stable
and shave her with a half blade
to steal this brunette
who is a fine jewel
she is too beautiful
she is the flower from Goias
her name is Dorcelina

(my friends, the deal is to put the brunette
on the mule's saddle and ride for more than ten days without stopping)

I am the son of Araçatuba
but I live in Andradina
it's the land of the cowboys
and crystal clear waters
in the morning we hear
a distant horn
and a sabiá coleira
sings in those hills
I want to see them sing
at the moment I kiss
the Goiana Dorcelina

I have a cowboy cape
to protect us from the fog
on the day I steal you
I'll be cutting through the fields
two hearts that love each other
have nothing to dominate
if your father gives consent
at the registry office of Andradina
I will be very happy
along with the flower of Goias
the Goiana Dorcelina
