Full lyrics
Caminheiro sem destino
O destino é Deus quem dá
Sempre em paz comigo mesmo
Coração só pra cantar
Um xamego hoje aqui
Amanhã, um dengo acolá
E o pó das estrada apagando
Os xodós que eu tive por lá
Foi entonce que ela surgiu
Tava escrito Orélia chegar
Orélia, ai, ai, Orélia
Só de olhar teu olhar magneto
Vi logo o meu fim
Que paixão, foi um choque da peste
Meu corpo tremeu que nem curumim
Orélia, ai, ai, Orélia
Ai, bichinha, se tu me deixar
Vai ser muito ruim
Faço arte no leste e no oeste
No sul, no nordeste
Dou cabo de mim
Translation
Wanderer without destiny
Destiny is given by God
Always at peace with myself
A heart just for singing
A xamego today here
Tomorrow, a dengo there
And the dust of the road erasing
The xodós I had there
It was then that she appeared
It was written for Orélia to arrive
Orélia, oh, oh, Orélia
Just by looking at your magnetic gaze
I immediately saw my end
What a passion, it was a hell of a shock
My body trembled like a curumim
Orélia, oh, oh, Orélia
Oh, bichinha, if you leave me
It will be very bad
I'll make trouble in the east and in the west
In the south, in the northeast
I'll put an end to myself
