Codinome Beija-Flor [English translation]

Why lie,

Or feign forgiveness?

What point is there in being civilized friends?

The emotion has drifted away

Love is a coincidence at best

Our song got silenced and never played again.

Why revert to education and finesse

to distill our hidden intentions?

The sweetness we had,

got slowly dilapidated,

From flower to flower

among my enemies.

Why, my hummingbird?

I had protected your name out of love

Using codename: “Hummingbird”.

If anyone ever calls to you out on the street

Oh, “hummingbird”

Don’t turn around to answer, no, my love.

I should forever be the only one allowed

to blend and pour secrets

Into your icy crystal ears.

You always kept dreaming while awake

Seeking ways to flee all pain

You would hold a cry within

but would rain out a generous love

You used to hold a cry within

And then rain out a generous love…
