Full lyrics

Eu vou deixando meu pedaço de chão

Eu vou deixando a saudade falar

Já sinto falta do luar do sertão

Do meu cavalo sempre a galopar


Do cheiro do mato que me alucina

Da voz de um cantador a improvisar

Os versos que ofereço pra você menina

Da casa de sapê vendo o sol raiar


Quando a tristeza bater no meu peito

Arme a rede na varanda que não vou tardar

Eu quero mesmo é o teu chamego

E o mel da cana a te lambuzar


A vida toda foi pra te amar, minha morena

Eu vou me embora mas eu vou voltar

Pode me esperar

Translation

I'm leaving my patch of land

I'm letting the saudade speak

I already miss the sertão moonlight

And my horse always galloping


The scent of the wild that intoxicates me

The voice of a bard improvising

The verses I offer to you, my girl

From the thatched house watching the sun rise


When sadness strikes my heart

Hang the hammock on the porch, I won't be long

What I truly want is your tender embrace

And the sugarcane honey sweetening you


My whole life has been to love you, my morena

I'm leaving but I will return

You can wait for me
