Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Gema by Caetano Veloso from Portuguese to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Brilhante, ê
Brilliant, eh
De noite dentro da mata
At night in the woods
Na escuridão, luz exata
In the darkness, exact light
Diamantina presença
Diamantina presence
Na solidão de quem pensa só em você
In the solitude of those who think only of you
Pedra, clarão da floresta
Stone, forest flash
Gema do olho da festa
Party eye yolk
Deixa eu saber
Let me know
Dona da minha cabeça
Mistress of my head
Não, nunca desapareça
No, never disappear
Me perder, não
Getting lost, no
Na taça negra da selva
In the black bowl of the jungle
Gota de luz sobre a relva
Drop of light on the grass
Meu bem querer
My good will
Centro do meu pensamento
Center of my thought
Meu canto dentro do vento
My corner in the wind
Brilhante, ê
Brilliant, eh
