Lyrics and translation Caetano Veloso - Trem Das Cores - Remixed Original Album




Trem Das Cores - Remixed Original Album
Train of Colors - Remixed Original Album
A franja da encosta
The fringe of the hillside
Cor de laranja
Orange in color
Capim rosa chá
Pink tea straw
O mel desses olhos luz
The honey of those light eyes
Mel de cor ímpar
Honey of an odd color
O ouro ainda não bem verde da serra
The still not quite green gold of the mountains
A prata do trem
The silver of the train
A lua e a estrela
The moon and the star
Anel de turquesa
Turquoise ring
Os átomos todos dançam
All the atoms dance
Madruga
Daybreak
Reluz neblina
Fog gleams
Crianças cor de romã
Pomegranate-colored children
Entram no vagão
Enter the car
O oliva da nuvem chumbo
The olive of the leaden cloud
Ficando
Remaining
Pra trás da manhã
Behind the morning
E a seda azul do papel
And the blue silk of the paper
Que envolve a maçã
That wraps the apple
As casas tão verde e rosa
The houses so green and pink
Que vão passando ao nos ver passar
That pass by as we see them pass
Os dois lados da janela
The two sides of the window
E aquela num tom de azul
And that one in a shade of blue
Quase inexistente, azul que não
Almost nonexistent, blue that doesn't exist
Azul que é pura memória de algum lugar
Blue that is pure memory of some place
Teu cabelo preto
Your black hair
Explícito objeto
Explicit object
Castanhos lábios
Chestnut lips
Ou pra ser exato
Or to be exact
Lábios cor de açaí
Lips the color of açaí
E aqui, trem das cores
And here, train of colors
Sábios projetos
Wise projects
Tocar na central
To play in the center
E o céu de um azul
And the sky of a blue
Celeste celestial
Celestial blue
