Onde eu nasci passa um rio [English translation]

Where I was born a river passes

That passes in the endless sameness

Same, endless, my land

Passed inside me

Passed as if the time

Nothing could change

Passed as if the river

Did not flow into the sea

The river flows into the sea

So much I have learned already

But what is more my singing

It is this that I sing here

Today I know that the world is big

And the sea of waves makes itself

But was born with the river

The song that I sing the most

The river just arrives at the sea

After walking on the ground

My land's river

Flows into my heart
