Enquanto os homens exercem

Seus podres poderes

Morrer e matar de fome

De raiva e de sede

São tantas vezes

Gestos naturais

Eu quero aproximar o meu cantar vagabundo

Daqueles que velam pela alegria do mundo

Closer to those who watch over the joy of the world

Indo e mais fundo

Going deeper

Tins e bens e tais

Será que nunca faremos senão confirmar

Will we never do anything but confirm

Na incompetência da América católica

Que sempre precisará de ridículos tiranos

Será, será, que será?

Will it be, will it be, what will it be?

Que será, que será?

What will it be, what will it be?

Será que essa minha estúpida retórica

Terá que soar, terá que se ouvir

Have to sound, have to be heard

Por mais zil anos

Será, será, que será?

Will it be, will it be, what will it be?

Que será, que será?

What will it be, what will it be?
