by João de Barros Cassal (1858 - 1903)

Sapecada
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Você me disse, caboclinha, em fevereiro:
(Eu tava vendo os seus olhinhos para a lua...)
Olha que linda a cabeleira do pinheiro!
E eu só espiava a cabeleira que era a sua...

Olha o pinhão!
Olha o pinhão!
Tá sapecando na fogueira de São João

Depois, de um dia de corrida, na Roseira,
Lhe disse coisas que nem sei o que dizia,
E então você me disse logo: - Que besteira!
Era a fogueira que em seu peito se acendia

Olha o pinhão!
Olha o pinhão!
Tá sapecando na fogueira de São João.

Mas o destino é mesmo assim, um caborteiro,
A gente monta no destino, sofre e sua...
Por isso eu hoje espio a copa do Pinheiro
Mas nunca mais eu pode olhar p'ra aquela lua!
