Full lyrics

Piriri, piriri, piriri

Galopando vai o jumentinho

Piriri, piriri, piriri

Vou ligeiro ver meu benzinho


Gosto do meu jumentinho

É presente que Deus me deu

Eu não troco o meu jumento

Por um bom carango seu


Bota água, bota lenha

Vai na feira e trás pequi

Quando vou ver minha negra

Adoro seu piriri


Piriri, piriri, piriri

Galopando vai o jumentinho

Piriri, piriri, piriri

Vou ligeiro ver meu benzinho


Ele é o simbolo do nordeste

Para seca enfrentar

Carregando os retirantes

Pra longe do seu lugar


Não maltrate o meu jumento

Pois a ele eu quero bem

Ele levou Jesus cristo

E leva você também

Translation

Piriri, piriri, piriri

The little donkey goes galloping

Piriri, piriri, piriri

I'm going quickly to see my sweetheart


I like my little donkey

It's a gift that God gave me

I wouldn't trade my donkey

For a good car of yours


Put water, put wood

Go to the fair and bring pequi

When I go to see my black woman

I love her piriri


Piriri, piriri, piriri

The little donkey goes galloping

Piriri, piriri, piriri

I'm going quickly to see my sweetheart


He is the symbol of the northeast

To face the drought

Carrying the migrants

Far from their place


Don't mistreat my donkey

Because I love him well

He carried Jesus Christ

And he carries you too
