Roberto CarlosPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Das montanhas
From the mountains
O cheiro agreste
The wild smell
O vento é uma carícia
The wind is a caress
A árvore dorme em pedra e pó
The tree sleeps in stone and dust
Mas a cidade não está só
But the city is not alone
Das montanhas
From the mountains
O cheiro agreste
The wild smell
O vento é uma carícia
The wind is a caress
A árvore dorme em pedra e pó
The tree sleeps in stone and dust
Mas a cidade não está só
But the city is not alone
Jerusalém toda de ouro
Jerusalem all of gold
Minha eterna namorada
My eternal girlfriend
Estou aqui com meu calor
I am here with my warmth
Minha fé, meu amor
My faith, my love
Yerushalayim shel zahav
Yerushalayim shel zahav
Veshel nechoshet veshel or
Ve'shel nechoshet ve'shel or
Halo lechol shirayich ani kinor.
Halo lechol shirayich ani kinor
Avir harim tsalul k'yayin
The air of the mountains is as clear as wine
Vereiyach oranim
And the fragrance of the pines
Nissah beru'ach ha'arbayim
Carried on the evening breeze
Im kol pa'amonim.
With the sound of bells
U'vtardemat ilan va'even
And in the slumber of tree and stone
Shvuyah bachalomah
Imprisoned in the dream
Ha'ir asher badad yoshevet
The city that sits alone
Uvelibah - chomah.
And in her heart - a wall
Yerushalayim shel zahav

Veshel nechoshet veshel or
Ve'shel nechoshet ve'shel or
Halo lechol shirayich ani kinor.
Halo lechol shirayich ani kinor
Yerushalayim shel zahav
Yerushalayim shel zahav
Veshel nechoshet veshel or
Ve'shel nechoshet ve'shel or
Halo lechol shirayich ani kinor.
Halo lechol shirayich ani kinor
U'vtardemat ilan va'even
And in the slumber of tree and stone
Shvuyah bachalomah
Imprisoned in the dream
Ha'ir asher badad yoshevet
The city that sits alone
Uvelibah - chomah.
And in her heart - a wall
Yerushalayim shel zahav
Yerushalayim shel zahav
Veshel nechoshet veshel or
