Mar De Copacabana Lyrics in English Gilberto Gil
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mar De Copacabana by Gilberto Gil from Portuguese to English.
Já mandei lhe entregar o mar
I already sent to deliver the sea
Que você viu
That you saw
Que você pediu pra eu dar
That you asked me to give
Outro dia em Copacabana
The other day in Copacabana
Talvez leve uma semana pra chegar
Maybe it will take a week to arrive
Talvez entreguem amanhã de manhã
Maybe they will deliver it tomorrow morning
Manhã bem seda tecida de sol
Morning well silk woven with sun
Lençol de seda dourada
Sheet of golden silk
Envolvendo a madrugada toda azul
Wrapping the whole blue dawn
Quando eu fui encomendar o mar
When I went to order the sea
O anjo riu
The angel laughed
E me pediu pra aguardar
And asked me to wait
Muita gente quer Copacabana
Many people want Copacabana
Talvez leve uma semana pra chegar
Maybe it will take a week to arrive
Assim que der, ele traz pra você
As soon as possible, he brings it to you
O mar azul com que você sonhou
The blue sea you dreamed of
No seu caminhão que desce
In your truck that descends
Do infinito e que abastece o nosso amor
From infinity and fuels our love
Se o anjo não trouxer o mar
If the angel doesn't bring the sea
Há mais de mil
There are more than a thousand
Coisas que ele pode achar
Things he can find
Tão lindas quanto Copacabana
As beautiful as Copacabana
Talvez tão bacanas que vão lhe agradar
Maybe so cool that they will please you
São tantas bijuterias de Deus
There are so many trinkets from God
Os sonhos, todos os desejos seus
The dreams, all your desires
Um mar azul mais distante
A more distant blue sea
E a estrela mais brilhante lá do céu
And the brightest star up in the sky
