PRIMEIRA VERSÃO
FIRST VERSION
Sei que estás em festa, pá
I know you're having a party, man
Fico contente
I'm happy
E enquanto estou ausente
And while I'm away
Guarda um cravo para mim
Save a carnation for me
Eu queria estar na festa, pá
I wanted to be at the party, man
Com a tua gente
With your people
E colher pessoalmente
And harvest in person
Uma flor do teu jardim
A flower from your garden
Sei que há léguas a nos separar
I know there are leagues separating us
Tanto mar, tanto mar
So much sea, so much sea
Sei também quanto é preciso, pá
I also know how much it takes, man
Navegar, navegar
Browse, browse
Lá faz primavera, pá
It's spring there, man
Cá estou doente
Here I am sick
Manda urgentemente
Send urgently
Algum cheirinho de alecrim
Some scent of rosemary
SEGUNDA VERSÃO
SECOND VERSION
Foi bonita a festa, pá
The party was beautiful, man
Fiquei contente
I was happy
E inda guardo, renitente
And I still keep it, reluctantly
Um velho cravo para mim
An old harpsichord for me
Já murcharam tua festa, pá
Your party has already faded, man
Mas certamente
But certainly
Esqueceram uma semente
They forgot a seed
Nalgum canto do jardim
In some corner of the garden
Sei que há léguas a nos separar
I know there are leagues separating us
Tanto mar, tanto mar
So much sea, so much sea
Sei também quanto é preciso, pá
I also know how much it takes, man
Navegar, navegar
Browse, browse
Canta a primavera, pá
Sing the spring, man
Cá estou carente
Here I am needy
Manda novamente
Send again
Algum cheirinho de alecrim
Some scent of rosemary
