Paroles et traduction Oswaldo Montenegro - Os Trilhos

Os Trilhos

Porque o trem tava nos trilhos
Desafio a incomodar
Meu coração de menino
Era puro palpitar
A certeza por um fio
Fio de água a minar
Que eu trocava por um rio
Que eu sonhava com o mar
Porque o sol dava nos trilhos
Com seu brilho a me cegar
Porque o dia era bonito
Eu só pude acreditar
Na promessa mais sublime
Na tolice mais vulgar
De ver dois braços do mundo
E correr para abraçar
Mas o tempo anda nos trilhos
Quem me leva e quem me traz
Quem rompeu com a cor do mundo
Nos meus olhos de rapaz
A paisagem, e a ventura
Guardo pra um dia lembrar
Coração quer é ternura
Não é partir, nem ficar

The Tracks

Because the train was on the tracks
I dare to bother
My boy's heart
It was pure beating
The certainty by a thread
A thread of water to undermine
That I would trade for a river
That I dreamed of the sea
Because the sun was shining on the tracks
With its brightness blinding me
Because the day was beautiful
I could only believe
In the most sublime promise
In the most vulgar folly
To see two arms of the world
And run to embrace
But time keeps on track
Who takes me and who brings me
Who broke with the color of the world
In my boy's eyes
The landscape, and the adventure
I keep it to remember one day
The heart wants tenderness
It's not about leaving or staying
