Contos da Lua Vaga [English translation]

Living hope

That the blood tames

It comes from outer space

And it makes of our arms

A shelter

That can keep

The victory of the bright emotion

Overcoming all fear

Hand in hand in the street

In a fate of light and love

Come now

There is not much time left

Come with your steady pace

And the face of a child

We have seen far too much evil

Look

We can always live in peace

In due time

Much to be done for the sake of us

We will get through

But we must never forget

Somebody else

That is coming

Plain and innocent to judge us

Lost

The enlightened children

Heirs of the soil

Planted soil

Not the ruins of a chaos

Diamonds and crystals

Are not worth such power

Moonlit tales

Or the history of mankind

Vacant moon rises to play

And send your signs

What will befall us

lf we're tired

Of the truth

Of the love

Living hope

That a hand can reach

Come with your steady pace

The face of a child

We have seen far too much evil.
