Full lyrics
O pau rolou, caiu
Lá na mata ninguém viu
(coro repete)
Torei o pau
Eu mesmo fiz a gamela
Eu mesmo roubei a moça
Eu mesmo casei com ela
(coro repete)
Translation
The log rolled, fell
In the forest, nobody saw
(coro repete)
I cut the log
I myself made the trough
I myself stole the girl
I myself married her
(coro repete)
