Full lyrics
Aonde está o homem
O homem da terra
Que trabalha o chão?
É ele o herói sem nome
Que cultiva a terra
Que nos dá pão
Olhando para o tempo
Está pedindo chuva
Ou desejando sol
Rezando pra não dar geada
Que castiga tanto a sua plantação
No grito do aboio
No ronco do trator
No canto da colheita
Em tudo o seu amor
Trabalhando a terra, ele está feliz
Ele é a força desse país
Translation
Where is the man
The man of the land
Who works the soil?
He is the nameless hero
Who cultivates the earth
Who gives us bread
Looking at the weather
He is asking for rain
Or wishing for sun
Praying for no frost
Which punishes his plantation so much
In the cry of the aboio
In the roar of the tractor
In the song of the harvest
In everything, his love
Working the land, he is happy
He is the strength of this country
