Se o mundo ficar pesado
If the world gets heavy
Eu vou pedir emprestado
I'll borrow
A palavra poesia

Se o mundo emburrecer
If the world becomes foolish
Eu vou rezar pra chover
I'll pray for rain
Palavra sabedoria
The word wisdom
Se o mundo andar pra trás
If the world goes backwards
Vou escrever num cartaz
I'll write on a poster
A palavra rebeldia

Se a gente desanimar
If we get discouraged
Eu vou colher no pomar
I'll pick from the orchard
A palavra teimosia

Se acontecer afinal
If it finally happens
De entrar em nosso quintal
To enter our backyard
A palavra tirania

Pegue o tambor e o ganzá
Grab the drum and the shaker
Vamos pra rua gritar
Let's go to the streets and shout
A palavra utopia
