Sambamaré

October 24, 2010

O coração baía aberto ao maré as águas vêm as águas vão prá onde eu não sei

Chegam de tempestade ao suspiro elas vão escrevem nomes na areia que as ondas apagarão

… instrumental

Correnteza agridoce pôs tesouros à beira-mar que beleza me traz sorriso despedida me faz chorar

Correnteza agridoce faz tesouros aterrisar que beleza ao alcance dos olhos mas nas mãos é que nem luar

Beleza ao alcance dos olhos desagua das mãos que nem luar

Samba on the tide

The heart like the bay opens to the tide the waters rise the waters fall who knows how far away

They rush in with a storm with a sigh they slip away they write their names in beachsand that the next wave will erase

Bitter-sweet flow of water leaves treasures at the water’s edge such beauty brings a smile that departure smooths away

Bitter-sweet flow of water brings these treasures onto land such beauty within eyes-reach is moonlight in your hands

Such beauty within eyes-reach Leaks like moonlight from your hands
