Relicário [English translation]

She's an indigenous woman with a necklace

The beautiful and everlasting afternoon

The islands dance on the sea

Which is the colour of the A in your spelling book?

What is going on?

The world is upside down and nobody noticed it yet

What is going on?

I was in peace and then you arrived

And there are eyelashes in the air

Before the son, comes the father and the grandpa

Like a trigger that never fires

You make your way into another place

Where I don't go

What are you doing?

A million vases without flowers in them

What are you doing?

A sacred shrine out of this love

The moon is far from us

Now the day rises vertically

The horizon announces with its stained glasses

I prefer this night than the eternity

Why is it dawning?

I ask the opposite of it, I want to see the Sun setting

Why is it dawning?

If I won't kiss your lips when you go away

Who in this world makes it last

For the rough seed: the future love

I'm the rain that wets so that you'll dry me

Through the buzz of your wings you told me

What are you saying?

A million sentences, all of them colourless...

What are you saying?

A sacred shrine out of this love

What are you saying?

What are you doing?

Why are you acting like this?

Acting like this?

Since you arrived in my life

My heart is open

Today the heat is more intense for me

And I don't feel cold any longer

And what my eyes can't see

My heart predicts

Even when I'm longing for you

You're not away

And in each kiss

And in each star up high

And in each flower in the fields

And in each letter written in the sheets

Which colour will your eyes bear?

And the light of your hair

All I know is that I'll call you
