Full lyrics

Ouvi o baque da cancela na ladeira

É sinal que a derradeira do rebanho já passou

Lá vem o gado vem pra sombra o umbuzeiro

E eu cantei o dia inteiro atrás do meu amor


Bate no morão cancela

Que também por ela vai batendo o meu coração

Vento que bate a cancela,

Corre o mundo e leva a minha solidão


Ainda ontem choveu tanto na ribeira

Minha gente tão festeira com toda animação

Também vi ontem que foi meu amor primeiro

Foi que nem tiro certeiro que matou minha ilusão


É madrugada o galo canta no terreiro

Me levanto tão ligeiro já começo a pelejar

Mas que mentira antes de deixar a cama

Dou um cheiro em quem me ama e saio doido pra ficar

Translation

I heard the gate slam on the hill

It's a sign that the last of the herd has passed

There comes the cattle to the shade of the umbu tree

And I sang all day long looking for my love


The gate slams on the fence post

Because my heart is also slamming for her

Wind that slams the gate,

Run the world and take away my loneliness


It rained so much yesterday on the riverbank

My people so festive with all the excitement

I also saw yesterday that it was my first love

It was like a sure shot that killed my illusion


It's dawn, the rooster crows in the yard

I get up so quickly, I already start to struggle

But what a lie, before leaving the bed

I give a kiss to the one who loves me and I go crazy to stay
