Por Causa da Pepita
Trio Nordestino
Because of Pepita
Big-eyed animal
Is Anita's son
He stopped marrying Rosa
A proper and beautiful girl
To marry Zefinha
Just because of the nugget
Because of the nugget
Because of the nugget
He didn't marry Rosa
She was the most beautiful girl
Rosa, daughter of Onorio
Honest and hardworking
But Zefinha's father
A liar, said so
Zefa found a nugget
And the fool believed
Because of the nugget
Because of the nugget
He didn't marry Rosa
She was the most beautiful girl
These things happen
To those who are greedy
He left a true love
To want someone with money
Lost Rosa and gained Zefa
And from the nugget, not even the smell
