These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Corro, eu não tenho mais o tempo pra perder
I run, I no longer have time to lose
Essas palavras só importam pra quem lê
These words only matter to those who read
A morte já me levou tanto e ainda pede mais
Death has already taken so much from me and still asks for more
Choro, meu amor, venha me ver, estou aqui
I cry, my love, come see me, I am here
Me faça um filho e jogue água no jardim
Make me a child and water the garden
Minha liberdade é justamente poder ir e ficar
My freedom is precisely being able to go and stay
Pratos, quintal, um dia de sol
Dishes, backyard, a sunny day
Eu só deixei meu corpo me dizer pra onde eu vou
I just let my body tell me where to go
E planto agora a flor mais bela
And now I plant the most beautiful flower
A nossa pedra fundamental
Our cornerstone
E os corpos que partiram nutrirão a nossa terra
And the bodies that departed will nourish our soil
Da flor, o tronco, do tronco, a fresta
From the flower, the trunk, from the trunk, the crack
Por onde vemos quem já foi e festa
Through which we see who has already gone and celebrate
E ela surge ali
And it appears there
Catedral
Cathedral
O sol encerra a noite
The sun ends the night
Eu já não sinto medo
I no longer feel fear
Afinal
After all
Te tenho pra mim hoje
I have you for myself today
E rogo um beijo ao céu
And I ask for a kiss from the sky
Catedral
Cathedral
Catedral

No dia em que meu pai partiu, alguém nasceu
The day my father left, someone was born
Na hora em que tudo aconteceu
The moment everything happened
A padaria serviu pães, o hospital fez mães
The bakery served bread, the hospital made mothers
Alguém me disse adeus
Someone said goodbye to me
Por isso agora eu faço a nossa casa
That’s why now I make our home
Decido pela farsa mais brilhante
I decide on the brightest farce
Se os homens ruins e os homens bons
If bad men and good men
São no fundo os mesmos homens
Are deep down the same men
Não temo, me movo
I do not fear, I move
Façamos cafés da manhã
Let’s have breakfast
Marquemos um encontro na nossa cozinha
Let’s set a meeting in our kitchen
Ensinemos Francisco a andar sob a luz da magnífica
Let’s teach Francisco to walk under the light of the magnificent
Catedral
Cathedral
O sol encerra a noite
The sun ends the night
Eu já não sinto medo
I no longer feel fear
Afinal
After all
Te tenho pra mim hoje
I have you for myself today
E rogo um beijo ao céu
And I ask for a kiss from the sky
Catedral
Cathedral
E quando o sol banhar a terra
And when the sun bathes the earth
Na manhã depois que nós nos despedimos
On the morning after we said goodbye
Haverá tristeza e choro
There will be sadness and crying
E haverá gente sorrindo
And there will be people smiling
Assim são todos os dias
That’s how all days are
Depende de quem está vivendo
It depends on who is living
Que sorte, então, a nossa estarmos
What luck, then, that we are
Bem, agora, vivos
Well, now, alive
Aqui relendo essa música que deixa tudo mais concreto
Here rereading this song that makes everything more concrete
E traz um pouco mais pra perto a minha paz
And brings my peace a little closer
Partiremos dois tranquilos e moraremos nesses versos
We will leave calmly as two and dwell in these verses
Vivos quando nós dois já não mais
Alive when the two of us are no longer
