Full lyrics
Beija-flor no bem-me-quer
Nesse louco coração
Bem-te-vi no bem viver
Dessa doce sedução, amor
Quem me dera pra saber
Um instante da verdade
Onde mora o meu querer
Despir do amor uma saudade
Tá com sede amor
Te dou água pra beber
Tá com sede amor
Te dou água pra beber
(2x)
Perco o senso e a direção
Da paixão e do prazer
Uma rosa que se lança
No jardim do amanhecer
O olhar que faz a prosa
Tantos risos pra nascer
Uma fonte que se preza
Me dá água pra beber
Tá com sede amor
Te dou água pra beber
Tá com sede amor
Te dou água pra beber
(2x)
Translation
Hummingbird on the daisy
In this crazy heart
Great Kiskadee in living well
Of this sweet seduction, love
I wish I knew
An instant of the truth
Where my desire lives
To strip from love a saudade
You're thirsty, love
I'll give you water to drink
You're thirsty, love
I'll give you water to drink
(2x)
I lose my senses and direction
Of passion and pleasure
A rose that launches itself
In the garden of dawn
The gaze that makes the prose
So many laughs to be born
A spring that is prized
Gives me water to drink
You're thirsty, love
I'll give you water to drink
You're thirsty, love
I'll give you water to drink
(2x)
