Текст и перевод песни Sérgio Reis - Goiano valente

Goiano valente

Arriei meu burro preto que tinha o nome de cigano
Eu saí cortando estrada de madrugada fazendo plano.
Eu já tinha combinado para ir roubar a filha de um goiano,
Levei meu 30 na cinta, de cabo branco a um palmo de cano!

O goiano era um perigo que dava medo a toda gente
Não enjeitava bate fundo, era mesmo um homem valente
Não tinha medo de nada, até parecia ser uma serpente
Eu tinha toda a certeza que seria mesmo um tempo quente!

Eu cheguei na casa dela de madrugada, estava garoando,
Ela me beijou sorrindo, de alegria estava chorando.
Joguei meu bem na garupa, com aquela flor voltei galopando;
A gente da minha casa, preocupada estava me esperando!

O goiano quando soube bateu em cima me procurando
Trazendo uma boita lapiana e pela estrada vinha riscando,
Logo vieram me avisar para ter cuidado com o tal goiano
Que vinha que nem boi bravo, até sua sombra vinha me insultando.

Quando avistei o goiano, eu fiquei firme na minha defesa
Ele parou em minha frente, até tremia de tanta brabeza;
Chegou pra bem perto de mim e foi falando com delicadeza:
- Eu acho melhor assim - casando fugido é melhor a despeza.

Valiant Goiano

I saddled my black donkey who was called Gypsy
I set off down the road at dawn making plans.
I had already arranged to go and steal the daughter of a Goiano,
I took my .30 in my belt, with a white handle a palm's length from the barrel!

The Goiano was a dangerous man who frightened everyone
He didn't shirk a fistfight, he really was a valiant man!
He was afraid of nothing, he even seemed like a snake!
I was absolutely certain that it would really be a hot time!

I got to her house at dawn, it was drizzling,
She kissed me, smiling, she was crying with joy.
I threw my love across the saddle, with that flower I galloped back;
The people in my house, worried, were waiting for me!

When the Goiano found out he set off on his horse looking for me
Bringing a Lapiana blade and carving up the road,
They soon came to warn me to be careful of the Goiano
Who was coming like a raging bull, even his shadow was insulting me.

When I spotted the Goiano, I stood firm in my defense
He stopped in front of me, he was even shaking with such anger;
He came very close to me and spoke with delicacy:
- I think it's better this way - eloping is less expensive.
