Full lyrics

Eu vou comprar uma fazenda

Sei que vou ser bom fazendeiro

Eu vou plantar muito cacau

E vou ganhar muito dinheiro


Quem toca sanfona, é sanfoneiro.

Quem toca triangulo. é triangleiro

Quem toca zabumba, é zabumbeiro.

E quem dança forró, é forrozeiro


Quem lida com vaca, é vaqueiro

Quem lida com boi, é boiadeiro

Quem trabalha na roça, é roceiro

Quem nasce em minas é mineiro

Translation

I'm going to buy a farm

I know I'll be a good farmer

I'm going to plant a lot of cocoa

And I'm going to earn a lot of money


Whoever plays sanfona, is a sanfoneiro.

Whoever plays triangle, is a triangleiro

Whoever plays zabumba, is a zabumbeiro.

And whoever dances forró, is a forrozeiro


Whoever deals with cows, is a vaqueiro

Whoever deals with oxen, is a boiadeiro

Whoever works in the countryside, is a roceiro

Whoever is born in Minas is a mineiro
