Batendo Casco
Num trote fronteiro de atirar o freio
Vou topando o vento só por desaforo
De ganhar a vida num Gateado Oveiro
Louco de faceiro junto dos cachorros
Pelo campo fora, pelas campereadas
Apresilho os laços num florear lindaço
De arrastar pro toso as ovelha mestra
E tudo que não presta de arredor do rancho
Me pilcho bem lindo, tipo pro namoro
Cabresteando as rugas deste amor bagual
Que, ao cambiar das léguas, vai boleando a perna
Pra Santana Velha do Rio Uruguai
Me pilcho bem lindo, tipo pro namoro
Cabresteando as rugas deste amor bagual
Que, ao cambiar das léguas, vai boleando a perna
Pra Santana Velha do Rio Uruguai
De sovéu bem curto, vamo, meu cavalo
Amagando pealos nesses mundaréu
Atorando as chircas numa manga d'água
Amadrinhando a mágoa sem tirar o chapéu
Semo um do outro sem rasgar baixeiro
Adelgaçando o pêlo neste manancial
Aparando as crina' do pescoço à orelha
De uma égua prenha sem passar o buçal
Me pilcho bem lindo, tipo pro namoro
Cabresteando as rugas deste amor bagual
Que, ao cambiar das léguas, vai boleando a perna
Pra Santana Velha do Rio Uruguai
Me pilcho bem lindo, tipo pro namoro
Cabresteando as rugas deste amor bagual
Que, ao cambiar das léguas, vai boleando a perna
Pra Santana Velha do Rio Uruguai
Do Rio Uruguai, do Rio Uruguai, do Rio Uruguai
Hoofbeats
In a front trot to throw the reins
I'm going to face the wind just for the sake of it
Making a living in a Gateado Oveiro
Crazy and cheerful with the dogs
Across the countryside, through the camps
I tie the ties in a beautiful flourish
To drag the master sheep to the shear
And everything that is useless around the ranch
I dress really nicely, like for dating
Bridling the wrinkles of this bagual love
That, when changing leagues, moves its leg
To Santana Velha of the Uruguay River
I dress really nicely, like for dating
Bridling the wrinkles of this bagual love
That, when changing leagues, moves its leg
To Santana Velha of the Uruguay River
With a very short veil, come on, my horse
Crushing peals in these worlds
Playing the chircas in a water tank
Sponsoring sorrow without taking off your hat
We are each other without tearing the bottom
Thinning the hair in this spring
Trimming the mane from neck to ear
Of a pregnant mare without passing the buccal
I dress really nicely, like for dating
Bridling the wrinkles of this bagual love
That, when changing leagues, moves its leg
To Santana Velha of the Uruguay River
I dress really nicely, like for dating
Bridling the wrinkles of this bagual love
That, when changing leagues, moves its leg
To Santana Velha of the Uruguay River
From the Uruguay River, from the Uruguay River, from the Uruguay River
