Folhas Secas Lyrics in English Elis Regina
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Folhas Secas by Elis Regina from Portuguese to English.
Quando piso em folhas secas
When I step on dry leaves
Caídas de uma mangueira
Fallen from a mango tree
Penso na minha escola
I think of my school
E nos poetas da minha Estação primeira
And the poets of my first season
Não sei quantas vezes
I don't know how many times
Subi o morro cantando
I've climbed the hill singing
Sempre o Sol me queimando
Always the Sun burning me
E assim vou me acabando
And so I'm wearing out
Quando o tempo avisar
When the time warns
Que eu não posso mais cantar
That I can no longer sing
Sei que vou sentir saudade
I know I will feel nostalgia
Ao lado do meu violão e da minha mocidade
Next to my guitar and my youth
