Full lyrics
Cerrero ê ê
Manda boi andar
Lá vai o carro cantando
E o carreiro carreando
Que bonito é carrear
Que bonito é carrear, ê boi
Meu carro geme na curva do pé da serra
Quando a corda corta a terra do caminho empoeirado
O boi adestrado não precisa de ferrão
Tendo descanso e ração chega no fim da viagem
Eu sei,
Translation
Cerrero ê ê
Make the ox walk
There goes the cart singing
And the ox driver driving
How beautiful it is to drive the ox-cart
How beautiful it is to drive the ox-cart, oh ox
My cart groans on the curve at the foot of the mountain
When the rope cuts the earth of the dusty path
The trained ox doesn't need a goad
Having rest and feed, it reaches the end of the journey
I know,
