Full lyrics

Papagaio da asa amarela

Corre e leve esse recado meu pra ela

Minha saudade não se rebate

Vai no grito estrangulado do meu canto


No Coito das Araras

Quem passa por lá não pára

No Coito das Araras

Tudo está como sempre foi

O gado pasta no Berra Boi ê ê ê

Tudo está como sempre foi ê ê ê


No Coito das Araras

É o araçá das almas

O Zé que cantava

É o sete casacas

É a sombra do touro êia

Peroba baião ê ê ê

É a sombra do touro êa

Timborna sertão


Ainda trago na boca, nos olhos

A visão da tua imagem

Despenteada, sorrindo

Correndo pela rodagem

Meia distância, meia légua

Légua e meia á á

No fim apanhei restou a peia

Légua e meia á á

Você correndo pela rodagem

Légua e meia á á

Despenteada, sorrindo

Légua e meia

Translation

Parrot with yellow wings

Hurry and take this message of mine to her

My longing doesn't subside

It goes in the strangled cry of my song


In the Araras Hideout

Whoever passes by doesn't stop

In the Araras Hideout

Everything is as it always was

The cattle graze in Berra Boi, eh, eh, eh

Everything is as it always was, eh, eh, eh


In the Araras Hideout

It's the araçá of souls

The Zé who used to sing

Is the seven jackets

It's the shadow of the bull, hey

Peroba baião, eh, eh, eh

It's the shadow of the bull, hey

Timborna sertão


I still carry in my mouth, in my eyes

The vision of your image

Disheveled, smiling

Running along the road

Half a distance, half a league

League and a half, ah, ah

In the end I caught it, only the tether remained

League and a half, ah, ah

You running along the road

League and a half, ah, ah

Disheveled, smiling

League and a half
