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 slavery, I worked hard in the sugarcane field,
I planted sugarcane, I planted coffee, I almost died from working so much…
CHORUS CHORUS: I'm going to cut sugarcane, I'm going to harvest coffee
If I don't harvest, I'll go, I'll go for carbão (BIS)
At Engenho, he loaded sugar and molasses
To sweeten the lives of those who have mistreated me
CHORUS CHORUS
I caught coconut, I caught cacao, the cotton was phenomenal
The beans were special and the corn was used to make porridge
CHORUS CHORUS
There he was tied to the trunk, he was punished with a whip,
The foreman mistreated me and he spilled my blood
CHORUS CHORUS
SOLO REFRAO
