Que pena o moço de hoje

Que a gaita não pode ver

Abria goela na tarde

Se calava no amanhecer

Nas munhecas do gaiteiro

Esta tagarela ia

Levando a noite por diante

Entrando na barra do dia

Ai gaitinha

De ilheira esgrimada

Tu foi a rainha

Na colmeia da ramada

Arrastou para o pecado

Mocinha nova e cumadre

Desmanchou e fez casamento

Mais do que juiz e padre

Quando a alma ia pro dedo

Bolia inté tecla fanhosa

Ficava com a voz macia

Que nem chinoca dengosa

O galo abria o bico

No romper da madrugada

Entrava os raios de Sol

Nos buracos da ramada

O gaiteiro ia no pires

Limpar os pilas que tinha

E na orelha do povo

Se ouvia a voz da gaitinha
