Full lyrics
Não sou mais vaqueiro lá do Siridó
Da fazenda bela vista nem do caicó
Já vendi minha boiada e vou pra Maceió
Palmeira dos índios
Eu passarei por lá
Pra rever minha alencarina
E essa saudade eu matar
Translation
I am no longer a cowboy from Siridó
From the Bela Vista farm, nor from Caicó
I've already sold my cattle and I'm going to Maceió
Palmeira dos Índios
I will pass through there
To see my beloved Alencarina again
And to kill this longing
