These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
No meio da ventania com medo de afundar
In the middle of the wind for fear of sinking
Entrando água no barco, barco perdido no mar
Entering water on boat, boat lost at sea
A tempestade insiste, querendo me afogar
The storm insists, wanting to drown me
Mas eu sinto profundezas, posso mergulhar
But I feel deep, I can dive
Voltar e respirar
Go back and breathe
Sou apenas um barquinho bem no meio dessa imensidão
I'm just a little boat right in the middle of this immensity
Mas eu sei que mar calminho não faz marinheiro bom
But I know that calm sea doesn't make sailor good
Até o mal tempo me ensina a navegar
Even evil time teaches me how to navigate
Se eu perco o meu senso, aponto pra esperança
If I lose my sense, I point to hope
Até o mal tempo me ensina a navegar
Even evil time teaches me how to navigate
Se eu perco o meu senso, aponto pra esperança
If I lose my sense, I point to hope
A terra firme é lá
The mainland is there
A tempestade insiste, querendo me afogar
The storm insists, wanting to drown me
Mas eu sinto profundezas, posso mergulhar
But I feel deep, I can dive
Voltar e respirar
Go back and breathe
Sou apenas um barquinho bem no meio dessa imensidão
I'm just a little boat right in the middle of this immensity
Mas eu sei que mar calminho não faz marinheiro bom
But I know that calm sea doesn't make sailor good
Até o mal tempo me ensina a navegar
Even evil time teaches me how to navigate
Se eu perco o meu senso, aponto pra esperança
If I lose my sense, I point to hope
Até o mal tempo me ensina a navegar
Even evil time teaches me how to navigate
Se eu perco o meu senso, aponto pra esperança
If I lose my sense, I point to hope
A terra firme é lá
The mainland is there
