Funeral de um Lavrador [English translation]

The grave you're in, hand-measured

Is the least bargain you got from life

It's good-sized, in width as in height

It's the part you got from this homestead

It's no large grave, it's a mid-sized grave

It's the land you wanted (to see) shared

It's a large grave for you the lesser deceased

But you'll be happier than you were in the world

It's a large grave for you meagre deceased

However more than in world you'll feel at ease

It's a large grave for your meagre flesh

But when land is given, you don't open your mouth

It's the least bargain you got from life

It's the part you got from this homestead

It's the land you wanted (to see) shared

You'll be happier than you were in the world
