Adeus Morena, Adeus
Tonico e Tinoco
Goodbye Brown, Goodbye
At Mané Pedro's house
It was a São João party
I sang a viola tune
Cateretê from my backlands
Paraguayan melody
That stirs the heart
I made the old ladies cry
And the girls feel passion
As the party ended
I left and left someone behind
I played the viola
Heading out on the road like no one else
When I arrived at the station
To catch the train
I heard a voice calling me
Wanting to come along
Girl, have patience
Go back home with your father
I'm going far away
I'll take the train to Paraguay
I won't take you with me
Because that's not done
Chorus (Goodbye brown, goodbye, Goodbye forever)
