Feirante

Adjust the saddlebag on your back because the sugar cane is sweet but it's not easy
And genipap in the basket is heavy,
Come on, hurry up to arrive quickly,
Good flour is no good if it gets wet
Look there at the curve, the rain on the stone pavement

Who told you life is a bed of roses? [2x]

Roses have thorns, and stones on the path
From here to the city is more than many leagues
Step firmly, keep going,
This fight has no truce
Those who don't carry the burden stay on the roadside
Happiness in bulk doesn't pay the farmer
Let's go because the journey is very long
And there's no more time to cry for anyone else
At the market we buy, we sell,
We ask, we even bargain what we bought
And I promise you that afterwards at the end of everything at the Hope Market
I'll buy you a dream of brown sugar wrapped in blue silk paper

[Just] To console you oh [4x]
