Full lyrics

Garota Todeschini

Ouça bem essa homenagem

Que um caboclo de coragem

Sanfoneiro e cantador

Que nunca cantou vantagem

Nem na luta e nem no amor

Você gauchinha merece

Toda minha gratidão

Por fazer esta sanfona

Pr' eu tocar o meu baião } bis


Quando boto ela no peito

Sinto o mundo em minha mão

Cada baixo representa

Um pedacinho do sertão

É dela que tiro o pão

Com ela é que eu dou estudo

Garota Todeschini, prenda minha

Com essa gaita e você sou tudo } bis

Translation

Garota Todeschini

Listen well to this tribute

That a courageous caboclo

Sanfoneiro and singer

Who never boasted

Neither in struggle nor in love

You gauchinha deserve

All my gratitude

For making this sanfona

For me to play my baião } bis


When I put it to my chest

I feel the world in my hand

Each bass represents

A little piece of the sertão

It's from it that I earn my bread

With it I provide education

Garota Todeschini, my darling

With this accordion and you I am everything } bis
