(Hahaha hahahahaha)
O autoacalanto de Benjamin
Benjamin's self-aggrandizement
Que é, por enquanto, caçula de mim
Which is, for now, the youngest of me
É um deslumbramento
It's a dazzle
Ele emula o canto de um querubim, curumim
He emulates the singing of a cherub, curumim
O que é mesmo que isso me ensina?
What does it even teach me?
Um ser que a si mesmo se nina
A being that nibbles itself
É um quase lamento
It's an almost regret
Já é nota de Tom
It's already Tom's note
E tem cor de jasmim
And it's jasmine colored
Eu nunca tinha visto nada assim
I'd never seen anything like it
(Hahaha hahahahaha)
