Cabocla Tereza (part. Fagner)

Up there on the mountain
In a very strange house made entirely of thatch
I stopped the horse one night
Because of two pops I heard inside

I got off very skillfully
I heard a perfect moan, a voice full of pain
You, Teresa, rest
I swore to take revenge for my love's sake

Through the crack in the window
By a little yellow light from a lamp that was almost going out
I saw a cabocla on the ground
And a guy had a gun in his hand, lighting up

I turned my horse at a gallop
I scratched with spurs and whips, I bled the guy's hip
I went down the mountain
And galloping that male I went to call his doctor

Let's go back to the mountain
In that strange little house, me and your doctor
I ran into a scared guy
That calling us to the side, his story was told

A while ago I made a little ranch
For my country girl to live
Because that was our nest
Far away from this place

Up there on the mountain
Near the moonlight
I lived a happy year
Without ever expecting it

And a lot of time passed
Thinking about being so happy
But Teresa, doctor
Happiness did not want

I put my dream in this look
I paid dearly for my love
Because of another country boy
She abandoned my ranch

I felt my blood boil
I swore to kill Teresa
I lowered my chestnut
And I went looking for her

Now I have taken revenge
This is the end of a love
I killed that country girl
It's my story, doctor
