Um Certo Capitão Rodrigo

And while I take a drink
I remember having met
A certain Captain Rodrigo
Who had no fear in his heart.

On the edge of a sword
Life was worth nothing
A certain Captain Rodrigo
Who carried death in his heart.

Beauty that is noticed
In the face of a bandit
A certain Captain Rodrigo
Had eyes as clear as the sunlight.

And while I take a drink
Don't come talk about sorrows
A certain Captain Rodrigo
Left earlier than the sunrise.
