Back in Vânia [English translation]

The pinkish wall takes us to Bertioga

You brought the blue flower from Casemiro

I didn't come from Mars, but I'm red

The purple earth in Jahu's fruit farm

Christina is not a saint, only in a street's name

You go to Ubatuba and come from Frei Galvão

I stop by Perez on my way to Sununga

Lazaro is dating Domingas

I was born in the summer of 1963

I have 5 children, I build myself a family

I brought you a lion ring from Saturn

Where are Cecília, my mother, Cássia and Marcelo living?

In my heart

The Lord of Time sleeps on the slope

I carry his hourglass in my hands

The planet spins and covers up the Moon's glow

If a star originated the Sun, I want a constellation

Of stars-Reis

I'm a poet and she's silent

When I heard "Se oriente"1 I remembered our trip to Japan

Our wedding, our sacristy

It was a trip to the top of a volcano

I joined the monastery back in São Domingos

I joined but I got out of there, oh my God!

I did some things with my eight friends

I joined, got out, arrived, departed, cried, smiled, loved, suffered, killed, died

And she gives me her hand

Life was never a bed of roses

Even though my blue sky now has the roses' color

The salt is a cocaine to the Red Sea

I swim in Agostinho Cantú's swimming pool

I don't know how much time to live we still have

The life we've lived gave us a reason

We've suffered and had fun all along

But all I wish is that time

Passes be slowly, day by day

Come together, with the wind

Be chill like the breeze

Like when I kiss your chest

The love that is contagious

So that I can say that I can't think of

Living without her
