Full lyrics

Venho do sertão lhe contar

Histórias para dormir

Trago a saudade na sola

Das alpergatas de couro


Trago o umbuzeiro no bolso

Mandacaru na sacola

No desencanto a viola

Com corda de micuri


Meu carro de boi nas nuvens voôu

Gemendo levou consigo meu sonho

O sol fundiu-se com a terra e sangrou

E afugentou meu rebanho


Meu coração se foi junto pro além

Nas patas de um boi que fugiu disparado

Meu coração não tem passo

Meu pasto deserto já não tem mais gado

Translation

I come from the backlands to tell you

Stories to fall asleep to

I bring longing in the sole

Of my leather sandals


I bring the umbu tree in my pocket

Mandacaru cactus in my bag

In disenchantment, the viola

With micuri string


My ox cart flew in the clouds

Groaning, it took my dream with it

The sun melted with the earth and bled

And scared away my herd


My heart went along to the beyond

In the hooves of an ox that fled wildly

My heart has no pace

My deserted pasture no longer has cattle
