Nasci no cautiveiro
Eu nasci no cautiveiro, trabalhei duro no canavial,
Plantei cana eu plantei café, quase morri de tanto trabalhar…
CORO REFRAO: Vou cortra cana eu vou, colher café eu vou
Se não colher eu vou, vou por carbão eu vou (BIS)
No Engenho foi carregando o açucar e o melaço
Para adoçar a vida de quem tem me maltratado
CORO REFRAO
Apanhei coco, apanhei cacao o algodão foi fenomenal
O feijão era especial e o milho para façer mingão
CORO REFRAO
Lá no tronco foi amarrado, com chicote foi castigado,
O feitor me maltratou e o meu sangue ele derramou
CORO REFRAO
SOLO REFRAO
CORO REFRAO
I was born in captivity, I worked hard in the sugarcane fields,
I planted sugarcane, I planted coffee, I almost died from working so hard…
CHORUS (REFRAIN): I'm going to cut sugarcane, I'm going to pick coffee.
If I don't harvest, I'll go, I'll go for charcoal (REPEAT)
At the sugar mill, he carried the sugar and molasses.
To sweeten the lives of those who have mistreated me.
CHORUS REFRAIN
I picked coconuts, I picked cacao, the cotton was phenomenal.
The beans were special, and the corn was for making porridge.
CHORUS REFRAIN
He was tied to the tree trunk, and punished with a whip.
The overseer mistreated me and spilled my blood.
CHORUS REFRAIN
SOLO REFRAIN
CHORUS REFRAIN
