Full lyrics
Iris olhando as penas coloridas dos concrizes
Dos sabiás, dos rouxinóis e das perdizes
Lembrei de ti, oh linda iris
Oh Iris
Será que somos dois eternos aprendizes
O amor se planta e ganha a força das raízes
Oh Iris
Oh Iris
Quando vieres caçaremos arco-íris
E borboletas só pra tu te distraíres
Que só me importa que eu delire e tu delires
Oh Iris
Translation
Iris watching the colorful feathers of the finches
Of the thrushes, of the nightingales and of the partridges
I remembered you, oh beautiful Iris
Oh Iris
Could it be that we are two eternal apprentices
Love is planted and gains the strength of the roots
Oh Iris
Oh Iris
When you come we will hunt rainbows
And butterflies just for you to distract yourself
Because all that matters to me is that I rave and you rave
Oh Iris
