Full lyrics
Pra lumiar seu amor
Cantaria um cantador
Num jorro feito de estrelas
Que o chafariz derramara
Na solidão das calçadas
Tingindo as madrugadas
Madrigais e aquarelas
E o emisfério dos teus olhos
Entre luas e abrolhos
Batizando caravelas
A pele do amor
Tem o suor das pétalas
A flor que madurou
Tem beija-flor para festejar
Passarinho voador
Passareia o meu amor
No seu azul do teu canto
Me empresta um galho de arruda
Do teu ninho uma só muda
Pra ela não sofrer quebranto
Vê se me ensina a voar
Pra cedo eu poder chegar
A esse bem que quero tanto
Translation
To illuminate your love
A bard would sing
In a gush made of stars
That the fountain had spilled
In the solitude of the sidewalks
Dyeing the dawns
Madrigals and watercolors
And the hemisphere of your eyes
Between moons and thorns
Baptizing caravels
The skin of love
Has the sweat of petals
The flower that ripened
Has a hummingbird to celebrate
Flying little bird
My love wanders like you
In the blue of your song
Lend me a sprig of rue
From your nest, just one seedling
So she doesn't suffer ill fate
Please teach me to fly
So I can arrive soon
To this beloved one I desire so much
