Ilha de Marajó
Zito Borborema
Marajó Island
I received a telegram from my old father asking me to come back
My father is a farmer on Marajó Island, in the state of Pará
I received a telegram from my old father asking me to come back
My father is a farmer on Marajó Island, in the state of Pará
They told my father that here in Guanabara I live poorly
And I wander around Praça da Central
And I live with Marieta in an abandoned shack in Marechal
My father got worried, can't sleep peacefully anymore, just thinking of me
And the words that come in his telegram are more or less like this
Come back, my son, to negotiate in the sale
Take care of the farm, the cattle, and the rubber plantations
Don't suffer anymore, and please, see what you do
Only the son who returns to his parents' house is happy
