Se Deus quiser vou me embora pro sertão
Pois a saudade me aconselha o coração
Manda que eu vá convidar Dona Chiquinha
para ser minha madrinha na Fogueira de São João
Chegando lá desabafo minha mágoa
Encho uma garrafa d'água depois enterro no chão
Peço a São João que apele pro Soberano
Pra saber se para o ano chove cedo em meu torrão
Se Deus quiser vou me embora pro sertão
Pois a saudade me aconselha o coração
Manda que eu vá convidar Dona Chiquinha
para ser minha madrinha na Fogueira de São João
Chegando lá desabafo minha mágoa
Encho uma garrafa d'água depois enterro no chão
Peço a São João que apele pro Soberano
Pra saber se para o ano chove cedo em meu torrão
