Full lyrics
Olha o gado no cercado
Olha o vaqueiro na pista
Olhando queda de boi
De lenço, moça bonita
Montado em cavalo novo
Vai explorando a coragem
Desbravando a peito aberto
No campo segue viagem
Aboio, sela e coxim
No aboio do vaqueiro
Gibão, perneira de couro
Faz ele ser o primeiro
Ê ê ê ê ê ê
Volta do mato o vaqueiro
Como se fosse da guerra
Trazendo no corpo o cheiro
Da gipirana da serra
Trás um bezerro doente
Na maçaneta da sela
A vaca preta na frente
E ele aboiando atrás dela
Translation
Look at the cattle in the pen
Look at the cowboy on the track
Watching the fall of the bull
With a scarf, pretty girl
Riding a new horse
He explores courage
Blazing open-chested
In the field he continues his journey
Cattle call, saddle and pad
In the cowboy's cattle call
Leather jacket, leather leggings
Makes him be the first
Ê ê ê ê ê ê
Back from the woods the cowboy
As if he were from war
Bringing on his body the scent
Of the gipirana of the mountains
Brings a sick calf
On the saddle horn
The black cow in front
And he calling behind her
