Full lyrics

Já cansei de tanto rir

Moço eu vim para ficar

Vou plantar uma semente

Quero ver se não vai dar

Quero ver se não vai dar

A semente que se planta

Ela nasce natural

Mais a outras que se planta

Para o bem mais vem o mal

Há outras que a gente planta

Para nascer e crescer

Mais porque a terra é seca

Elas só podem morrer

Eu já plantei alegria

E o que nasceu foi tristeza

Pois foi regada com o pranto

Dos que vivem na pobreza

Eu já plantei a esperança

E pensei que ela era mais

Por isso nasceu o ódio,

E o ódio, só ódio trás

Mais tarde porém notei

Onde quer que a gente for

Só se planta uma esperança

Juntamente com amor

Pois eu já plantei a esperança

Com amor que vai brotar

E agora esta semente

Quero ver se não vai dar

Quero ver se não vai dar

Translation

I'm tired of laughing so much

Mister, I came to stay

I'm going to plant a seed

I want to see if it won't work

I want to see if it won't work


The seed that is planted

It is born naturally

But others that are planted

For good, more evil comes

There are others that we plant

To be born and grow

But because the land is dry

They can only die

I have already planted joy

And what was born was sadness

Because it was watered with the weeping

Of those who live in poverty

I have already planted hope

And I thought it was more

That's why hatred was born,

And hatred, only hatred brings

Later, however, I noticed

Wherever we go

Only hope is planted

Together with love

Because I have already planted hope

With love that will sprout

And now this seed

I want to see if it won't work

I want to see if it won't work
