These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Sem querer te perdi tentando te encontrar
I didn't want to lose you trying to find you.
Por te amar demais sofri, amor
For loving you too much I suffered, love
Me senti traído e traidor
I felt betrayed and traitorous
Fui cruel sem saber que entre o bem e o mal
I was cruel without knowing that between good and evil
Deus criou um laço forte, um nó
God created a strong bond, a knot
E quem viverá um lado só?
And who will live one side?
A paixão veio assim afluente sem fim
The passion came so endless affluent
Rio que não deságua
River that does not flow
Aprendi com a dor nada mais é o amor
I learned from pain nothing else is love
Que o encontro das águas
That the meeting of the waters
Hoje vai pra nunca mais voltar
Today you're never going to come back
Como faz o velho pescador
As does the old fisherman
Quando sabe que é a vez do mar
When you know it's the turn of the sea
Qual de nós
Which one of us
Foi buscar o que já viu partir
He went to get what he's seen gone
Quis gritar, mas segurou a voz
I wanted to scream, but he held his voice
Quis chorar, mas conseguiu sorrir?
You wanted to cry, but you managed to smile?
A paixão veio assim afluente sem fim
The passion came so endless affluent
Rio que não deságua
River that does not flow
Eu aprendi com a dor nada mais é o amor
I learned from pain nothing else is love
Que o encontro das águas
That the meeting of the waters
Did you know?
