Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

A água arrepiada pelo vento

The water ruffled by the wind

A água e seu cochicho

The water and its whisper

A água e seu rugido

The water and its roar

A água e seu silêncio

The water and its silence


A água me contou muitos segredos

The water told me many secrets

Guardou os meus segredos

It kept my secrets

Refez os meus desenhos

Redrew my drawings

Trouxe e levou meus medos

Brought and took away my fears


A grande mãe me viu num quarto cheio d'água

The great mother saw me in a room full of water

Num enorme quarto lindo e cheio d'água

In a huge, beautiful room full of water

E eu nunca me afogava

And I never drowned


O mar total e eu dentro do eterno ventre

The total sea and I inside the eternal womb

E a voz do meu pai, voz de muita águas

And the voice of my father, a voice of many waters

Depois o rio passa

Then the river flows

Eu e água, eu e água

Me and water, me and water

Eu

Me


Cachoeira, lago, onda, gota

Waterfall, lake, wave, drop

Chuva miúda, fonte, neve, mar

Fine rain, spring, snow, sea

A vida que me é dada

The life that is given to me

Eu e água

Me and water


Água

Water

Lava as mazelas do mundo

Washes away the world's ills

E lava a minha alma

And washes my soul
