Peregrino

Pilgrim

Ele vendeu tudo que tinhaHe sold everything he owned
Reuniu coragem e alegriaGathered courage and joy
Despediu-se da famíliaSaid goodbye to his family
E decidiu sair pelo mundoAnd decided to go out into the world

Ele partiu bem cedo no diaHe left very early on the day
Que decidiu ser um homem feitoThat he decided to be a grown man
Sabia que voltaria ricoHe knew he would return a rich man
Pra poder ajudar todo mundoSo that he would help everyone

(Quando nasceu) a mãe chorou de felicidade(When he was born) his mother cried with happiness
E suspirou de fomeAnd sighed with hunger
Sua barriga estava vaziaHer belly was empty
E ainda assim tinha outro a caminhoAnd yet she had another one carrying her name

Quando nasceu - felicidadeWhen he was born - happiness
A mãe suspirou de fomeMother sighed with hunger
Barriga vaziaHer belly empty
E mais uma boca pra alimentarAnd another mouth to feed

Com medo e um sorriso no rostoWith fear and a smile on his face
Ele atravessou o oceanoHe crossed the ocean
Virou os planos na cabeçaHe turned over his plans in his head
Em suas veias corria sangue ciganoIn his veins coursed Gypsy blood

Quando chegou na fronteiraWhen he got to the border
Seu pobre coração congelouHis poor heart froze
Sem sorriso, nem um oláNo smile not even a hello
Você deve voltar imediatamente, senhorYou must turn around immediately, Mister

A mãe chorou de felicidadeMother cried with happiness
Enquanto os vizinhos riam pelas costasAs the neighbours laughed behind her back
Ele partiu pra ir pra foraHe took off to go abroad
Mas voltou sem um centavoBut returned without a penny

A mãe chorou de felicidadeMother cried with happiness
E suspirou de fomeAnd sighed with hunger
Sua barriga estava vaziaHer belly was empty
E ele voltou pra carregar seu nomeAnd he came back to carry her name
