Full lyrics
Quando eu te vi,
os meus olhos se encheram de cor
como se minha íris refletisse um arco
e aquele instante representaria um marco
em minha vida que até então era incolor
E o Bem-te-vi
em acordo com o beija-flor
pediu ao Sabiá que espalhe pelo mundo
na melodia do seu canto mais profundo
aquele encontro que me trouxe esse novo amor
Mas ao anoitecer
um outro canto chega ao meu ouvido
pra me confundir
Brilho da lua cheia
refletindo um novo sorriso
e uma nova intenção
Na madrugada
as cores se derramam pelo chão
perfumes se espalham pelo ar
havia mais de uma ilusão
Translation
When I saw you,
my eyes filled with color
as if my iris reflected a rainbow
and that instant would represent a milestone
in my life, which until then was colorless
And the Bem-te-vi
in agreement with the beija-flor
asked the Sabiá to spread throughout the world
in the melody of its deepest song
that encounter that brought me this new love
But at nightfall
another song reaches my ear
to confuse me
Glow of the full moon
reflecting a new smile
and a new intention
At dawn
the colors spill onto the ground
perfumes spread through the air
there was more than one illusion
