Regue-se Lyrics Translation in English

Se, um dia, a poesia me sumir da veia

If, one day, poetry disappears from my veins

E o senso das metáforas morrer no ar,

And the sense of metaphors dies in the air,

Terei a sensação da alma que incendeia

I will have the sensation of a soul that ignites

E o grande mal dos loucos que não podem amar

And the great ailment of the mad who cannot love

Terei que proibir-me do reggae e de ti,

I will have to forbid myself from reggae and from you,

Na introspecção, mergulharei de cara.

In introspection, I will dive headfirst.

Me esconderei dos sonhos, perderei a tara

I will hide from dreams, lose the fixation

E, se me perguntarem, direi que morri.

And, if they ask me, I will say that I died.

As cordas do ovation irão rebentar!

The strings of the ovation will break!

A voz, presa no peito, fraca, calará.

The voice, trapped in the chest, weak, will fall silent.

E os mal tocados tons, logo, vão se esquecer

And the poorly played tones, soon, will be forgotten

E, quando me lançares ares de piedade,

And when you cast upon me airs of pity,

Me esconderei de mim, ante a cruel verdade,

I will hide from myself, facing the cruel truth,

Serei a sepultura do meu podre ser.

I will be the burial ground of my rotten being.
