Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Noite azul, céu sereno

Blue night, serene sky

Num barco pequeno

In a small boat

Vou deslizando no mar

I'm gliding on the sea

E a brancura da Lua

And the whiteness of the Moon

Nas águas flutua

Floats on the waters

Numa beleza sem par

In an unparalleled beauty


De longe parece, ouvir-se uma prece

From afar it seems, hearing a prayer

No vento, nas ondas, na espuma que em véu

In the wind, in the waves, in the foam like a veil

Emoldura o caminho, que passa o barquinho

Frames the path, that the little boat passes through

Seguindo as estrelas que o guiam do céu

Following the stars that guide it from the sky


Mas em dado momento, transforma-se o vento

But at a certain moment, the wind changes

Cessa da Lua o clarão

The Moon's brightness ceases

E o mar tão bravio, é um desafio

And the sea so wild, is a challenge

Ao barco sem direção!

To the boat with no direction!


Com voz de lamento, no meu pensamento

With a voice of lament, in my thoughts

Orei ao meu Mestre, com fé sem igual

I prayed to my Master, with unparalleled faith

E voltou a bonança, vitória se alcança

And calm returned, victory is achieved

Olhando pra Cristo, o Eterno Fanal

Looking at Christ, the Eternal Beacon
