Rédeas Do Possante Lyrics in English Zezé Di Camargo & Luciano
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Rédeas Do Possante by Zezé Di Camargo & Luciano from Portuguese to English.
Cada palmo dessa estrada eu conheço bem
Every inch of this road I know well
Vou levando minha vida nesse vai e vem
I'm living my life in this coming and going
Não tem chuva não tem sol
There's no rain, there's no sun
Não tem noite e não tem dia
There's no night and there's no day
Cada cidade que passo levo alegria
Every city I pass through I bring joy
Quantas estrelas já vi iluminando o céu
How many stars I've seen lighting up the sky
Madrugada de sereno molha meu chapéu
Early morning dew wets my hat
Já passei tantos janeiros
I've been through so many Januaries
Já senti tanta saudade
I've felt so much longing
Cada ida e cada volta é só felicidade
Every going and every return is just happiness
Minha vida é segurar as rédeas do possante
My life is holding the reins of the powerful one
Lobo da estrada, fera do volante
Road wolf, beast of the steering wheel
Louco apaixonado mais um viajante
Crazy in love, just another traveler
Minha vida é igualzinha a vida do peão
My life is just like the cowboy's life
Também tem saudade do seu coração
He also feels longing in his heart
Onde vai seu cavalo vai meu caminhão
Where his horse goes, my truck goes
Quantas estrelas já vi iluminando o céu
How many stars I've seen lighting up the sky
Madrugada de sereno molha meu chapéu
Early morning dew wets my hat
Já passei tantos janeiros
I've been through so many Januaries
Já senti tanta saudade
I've felt so much longing
Cada ida e cada volta é só felicidade
Every going and every return is just happiness
Minha vida é segurar as rédeas do possante
My life is holding the reins of the powerful one
Lobo da estrada, fera do volante
Road wolf, beast of the steering wheel
Louco apaixonado mais um viajante
Crazy in love, just another traveler
Minha vida é igualzinha a vida do peão
My life is just like the cowboy's life
Também tem saudade do seu coração
He also feels longing in his heart
Onde vai seu cavalo vai meu caminhão
Where his horse goes, my truck goes
Minha vida é segurar as rédeas do possante
My life is holding the reins of the powerful one
Lobo da estrada, fera do volante
Road wolf, beast of the steering wheel
Louco apaixonado mais um viajante
Crazy in love, just another traveler
Minha vida é igualzinha a vida do peão
My life is just like the cowboy's life
Também tem saudade do seu coração
He also feels longing in his heart
Onde vai seu cavalo vai meu caminhão
Where his horse goes, my truck goes
Cada palmo dessa estrada eu conheço bem
Every inch of this road I know well

Did you like this lyrics translation?
possante — powerful (vehicle)
Possante literally means "powerful" or "mighty." While it can describe anything powerful, in Brazil, it's very commonly used as slang to refer to a powerful car or truck, especially in the context of country music and road travel.
In "Rédeas do Possante," the word is used to describe the singer's truck, which he drives across the country. The phrase "rédeas do possante" (reins of the powerful vehicle) evokes the image of a cowboy controlling his horse, but here it's a truck driver controlling his mighty machine, making it a unique and culturally rich word choice for this song.
