Translation

De papel de céu se cai o véu

From paper, the veil falls from the sky

O mel escorre no canto da boca

Honey drips at the corner of the mouth

Rouca a pouca voz que diz

The hoarse, little voice that says

Eu sempre tive alergia a giz

I always had an allergy to chalk

Mas fiz essa escada

But I made this ladder


O leão que ruge é só papel

The roaring lion is just paper

Mas suas garras são de prata, origami, arame

But its claws are silver, origami, wire

Mesmo que o peito inflame

Even if the chest inflames

E sempre tão sutil

And always so subtle


Eu vi, a acrobata de éter

I saw the aerial acrobat

Que se dedica ao trapézio

Who dedicates herself to the trapeze

Só pra ficar mais perto de si

Just to be closer to herself

Só pra ficar mais perto

Just to be closer


Coberta de tule branco a lua

Covered in white tulle, the moon

De agora em diante é também sua

From now on, it is also yours

Nunca vil, nunca vi

Never vile, never seen

Sofrer de amor assim

Suffer from love like this

Com tanta elegância

With so much elegance
