Flora Lyrics in English Gilberto Gil
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Flora by Gilberto Gil from Spanish to English.
Imagino-te já idosa
I imagine you already old
Frondosa toda a folhagem
Leafy, all the foliage
Multiplicada a ramagem
The branches multiplied
De agora
Of now
Tendo tudo transcorrido
With everything having passed
Flores e frutos da imagem
Flowers and fruits of the image
Com que faço essa viagem
With which I make this journey
Pelo reino do teu nome
Through the realm of your name
Ó, Flora
Oh, Flora
Imagino-te jaqueira
I imagine you a jackfruit tree
Postada à beira da estrada
Standing at the roadside
Velha, forte, farta, bela
Old, strong, ample, beautiful
Senhora
Lady
Pelo chão, muitos caroços
On the ground, many seeds
Como que restos dos nossos
As if remnants of our
Próprios sonhos devorados
Very own dreams devoured
Pelo pássaro da aurora
By the bird of dawn
Ó, Flora
Oh, Flora
Imagino-te futura
I imagine you future
Ainda mais linda, madura
Even more lovely, mature
Pura no sabor de amor e
Pure in the flavor of love and
De amora
Of blackberry
Toda aquela luz acesa
All that light lit
Na doçura e na beleza
In sweetness and in beauty
Terei sono, com certeza
I'll be sleepy, for sure
Debaixo da tua sombra
Beneath your shade
Ó, Flora
Oh, Flora
Ó Flora
Oh Flora
Ó Flora
Oh Flora
