Full lyrics
Chegamos na Pedra Bonita
Um Caldeirão largeado
E natureza bendita
Na feira um lindo lago
Aqui a vida é mansinha
Tem fartura, bode assado
Feijão de corda, farinha
Não aparece os sordado
Pousamos num paraíso
Que nem parece o sertão
Pra descansar o juízo e as mágoas do coração
Translation
We arrived at Pedra Bonita
A wide-open Caldeirão
And blessed nature
A beautiful lake at the fair
Here life is gentle
There's plenty, roasted goat
String beans, flour
The soldiers don't appear
We landed in a paradise
That doesn't even look like the backlands
To rest our minds and the sorrows of the heart
