Velha gaita de oito baixos
Duas fieiras de botão
Minha teta de índio guacho
Apojo da solidão
No canto em que me remancho
No mundo que meu galpão
Contigo converso baixo
Segredos do coração
Minha alão cresce de etapa
Tudo que herdei dos meus pais
Raiz da cepa farrapa
E voz de meus ancestrais
O pampa bruto carrega
No bojo das ressonâncias
Vento assopra nas macegas
No alvoredo das estâncias
Resmungos de algum bochincho
Rangir de couros e bastos
Saudade até de um relincho
Rumor de chuva nos pastos
Cochichas que sou um taita
Entende dos teus segredos
Pois minh'alma é uma gaita
Que está na ponta dos dedos
Velha gaita de oito baixos
Duas fieiras de botão
Minha teta de índio guacho
Apojo da solidão
No canto em que me remancho
No mundo que meu galpão
Contigo converso baixo
Segredos do coração
