Voltaram seus olhos naquela direçào

Sente-se o gosto do vento
You can taste the wind
Cantando nos vidros o nome doce da cunha
Singing in glasses the sweet name of the wedge

Um remoinho de dinheiro

Varre o mundo inteiro, um leve leviatà
Sweeps the whole world, a slight leviato
E aqui dançam guerras no meio
And here dance wars in the middle
Da paz das moradas de amor

Pra onde vai, quando for
Where you're going when you go
Essa imensa alegria, toda essa exaltaçào
This immense joy, all this exaltation
Solidào, multidào

Que menina bonita mordendo a polpa da maçà
What a beautiful girl biting the mason pulp
Manhattan, manhattan
