Mocinho Aventureiro

Teixeirinha Teixeirinha

Adventurous Boy

I was a young man I still remember
I turned eighteen
I decided to leave home
The day was brightening, I got ready
My mother asked me
Tell my son where you are going
I didn't respond, I just gave him a kiss
And I hugged my old father
When saying goodbye, those who remain cry
Those who leave also cry

I stung my gray in the spur
I looked back to say goodbye
Brother cried, sister cried
The dear father and mother cried
I also cried on the road
On my galloping horse
I looked at the dewy forest
I heard the birds singing
For the girl I loved
I was crying too

I destined to run the world
It's been ten years and I haven't been back
Two hundred leagues is away
Who loved me and left me there
I was not happy on this journey
That's why I didn't go back
But the moment it gets better
I will see my old parents
I want to hug my brothers
And never leave there

Siblings must be married
And my aging parents
For not knowing my news
They think I died
And the girl I still love
If she married happiness
If you haven't married, you're still waiting for me
Let's unite for eternity
Close to her and my relatives
The longing dies forever
