Longe do meu reino estou
Ando a procura de um sonho que perdi
Não quero senhora, nem sons de alaúde
Sou mais que um cavaleiro errante
Tudo tive e nada tenho
Sigo atrás de um sonho só
Eu vi a flor mais bela da estrada
Deitar-se ao vento
E secar ao sol
Meus olhos se turvaram
Ao pó da estrada
E nem por isso o pranto derramei
Nada devo ao meu lugar
Não tenho raízes, sou sem rei, não tenho lar
Dize-me donzela
Que de mim te ocultas
Qual o caminho que procuro
Nem eu mesmo sei achar
Dor imensa me acompanha
Eu vi a flor mais bela da estrada
Deitar-se ao vento
E secar ao sol
Meus olhos se turvaram
Ao pó da estrada
E nem por isso o pranto derramei
