Lyrics and translation Geraldo Azevedo - Semente De Adão




Semente De Adão
A Seed of Adam
Eles pelos hinos cantaram, cantaram
They sang in hymns, they sang
Entre jardins e bandeiras
Amongst gardens and banners
E quase fome e sede passaram, passaram
And almost starved and thirsted, they did
Do cais até o sertão
From the docks to the backcountry
Na cidade e na roça
In the city and on the farm
Dividimos calados
We divided in silence
Eles todos sonhos sonharam, sonharam
They all dreamed dreams, they did
Todos os sonhos sonharão
They will all dream dreams
Eles todos sonhos sonharam, sonharam
They all dreamed dreams, they did
Todos os sonhos sonharão
They will all dream dreams
Um o martelo batendo
One with a hammer beating
O outro esperando chover
The other waiting for rain
Sua filha a colher
Her daughter to reap
A semente de Adão
The seed of Adam
Eles todos sonhos sonharam, sonharam
They all dreamed dreams, they did
Todos os sonhos sonharão
They will all dream dreams
Eles todos sonhos sonharam, sonharam
They all dreamed dreams, they did
Todos os sonhos sonharão
They will all dream dreams
Um a navalha na barba
One a razor on his beard
O outro deixa o fio crescer
The other lets his grow
Para seu filho aprender
For his son to learn
Do repente soltar
To let out a sudden thought
Uma nova canção
A new song
Que fale do novo
That speaks of the new
No velho planeta
On the old planet
Eles pelos hinos cantaram, cantaram
They sang in hymns, they sang
Entre jardins e bandeiras
Amongst gardens and banners
E quase fome e sede passaram, passaram
And almost starved and thirsted, they did
Do cais até o sertão
From the docks to the backcountry
Na cidade e na roça
In the city and on the farm
Dividimos calados
We divided in silence
Eles todos sonhos sonharam, sonharam
They all dreamed dreams, they did
Todos os sonhos sonharão
They will all dream dreams
Eles todos sonhos sonharam, sonharam
They all dreamed dreams, they did
Todos os sonhos sonharão
They will all dream dreams
Um o martelo batendo
One with a hammer beating
O outro esperando chover
The other waiting for rain
Sua filha a colher
Her daughter to reap
A semente de Adão
The seed of Adam
Eles todos sonhos sonharam, sonharam
They all dreamed dreams, they did
Todos os sonhos sonharão
They will all dream dreams
Eles todos sonhos sonharam, sonharam
They all dreamed dreams, they did
Todos os sonhos sonharão
They will all dream dreams
Um a navalha na barba
One a razor on his beard
O outro deixa o fio crescer
The other lets his grow
Para seu filho aprender
For his son to learn
Do repente soltar
To let out a sudden thought
Uma nova canção
A new song
Que fale do novo
That speaks of the new
No velho planeta
On the old planet
