Ó, meu sol de madrugada
Quando rastreando o orvalho
Saia contigo, boleado no más
E, bem gaucho, repontava a cavalhada
Saia contigo, boleado no más
E, bem gaucho, repontava a cavalhada
Ponchito, meu companheiro
Trompador das invernias
Color cinza envelhecido
Minha coberta farroupilha
Contigo, nunca melei
Lechiguana campo afora
Nem nunca mordi de espora
Tua franjita gaúcha
E em tropa larga
Cue pucha! Numa tormenta aragana
Entre tua lã e a badana
Meu rancho de alma charrua
E em tropa larga
Cue pucha! Numa tormenta aragana
Entre tua lã e a badana
Meu rancho de alma charrua
E quando o sol esquentava
Nas manhãs de algum outono
Voava tropa em porteira
Te abanando qual um mango
E quando o sol esquentava
Nas manhãs de algum outono
Voava tropa em porteira
Te abanando qual um mango
Ponchito de color cinza
Meu atavismo crioulo
Regalo de Dom Barbosa
A quem dedico este canto
Ponchito, meu companheiro
Trompador das invernias
Color cinza envelhecido
Minha coberta farroupilha
E em tropa larga
Cue pucha! Numa tormenta aragana
Entre tua lã e a badana
Meu rancho de alma charrua
E em tropa larga
Cue pucha! Numa tormenta aragana
Entre tua lã e a badana
Meu rancho de alma charrua
Meu rancho de alma charrua
