Retraçando a trajetória, do passado e do presente

Por isso eu canto reverente, neste galpão enfumaçado

Sinto eflúvios ancestrais, de um tempo que não passou

Hordas do meu tetravô, como pedindo um retruco

Palhaçadas gauchescas, de palhacescos xirús

O coração da terra pulsa, nossos valores indianos
