Lyrics and translation Jane Duboc - Aos Nossos Filhos




Aos Nossos Filhos
To Our Children
Perdoem a cara amarrada
Forgive the sullen face
Perdoem a falta de abraço
Forgive the lack of a hug
Perdoem a falta de espaço
Forgive the lack of space
Os dias eram assim
Days were like this
Perdoem por tantos perigos
Forgive so many dangers
Perdoem a falta de abrigo
Forgive the lack of shelter
Perdoem a falta de amigos
Forgive the lack of friends
Os dias eram assim
Days were like this
Perdoem a falta de folhas
Forgive the lack of leaves
Perdoem a falta de ar
Forgive the lack of air
Perdoem a falta de escolha
Forgive the lack of choice
Os dias eram assim
Days were like this
E quando passarem a limpo
And when you clean up
E quando cortarem os laços
And when you cut the ties
E quando soltarem os cintos
And when you loosen the belts
Façam a festa por mim
Have a party for me
Quando largarem a mágoa
When you let go of the pain
Quando lavarem a alma
When you wash your soul
Quando lavarem a água
When you wash the water
Lavem os olhos por mim
Wash your eyes for me
E quando brotarem as flores
And when flowers blossom
Quando crescerem as matas
When forests grow
Quando colherem os frutos
When you reap the fruits
Digam o gosto pra mim
Tell me how they taste
Digam o gosto pra mim
Tell me how they taste
Digam o gosto pra mim
Tell me how they taste
