O sausal num vai e vem
Adorna a aguada do rancho
Avista quem chega manso
No quadro curto das casa
Uma oveira pede vaza
Num tranco de quem vem vindo
E a barbela vai tinindo
Recostando o freio n’água
Quantas ponchadas de eguadas
Deixaram luzir seus pelos
Nesses “lagoão de potreiro”
Pegado junto das casa
Deixando a marca dos cascos
No pasto contra o barranco
Deram de rédeas pra os ranchos
Se apartando das aguadas
Bonifácio estrella... Paysano
De volta da campereada!
Com a cincha igual atrasada
“Frouxou” a boca da oveira
Que encharcou a trança da rédea
Palmeando n’água as presilhas
Quantas oveiras, tordilhas
Mataram a sede na volta
Bonifácio estrella.... Sureño
Índio das dobras do campo
Conhece o valor e... Tanto
Desses “lagoão de potreiro”
