O Vento Lyrics in English Los Hermanos

Home / Lyrics Translation / Los Hermanos / O Vento

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song O Vento by Los Hermanos from Portuguese to English.

I can hear the wind pass

Watch the wave crash

But the damage it does

Life's too short to see

I thought

That when I die

I'll wake up to time

And for time to stop

A century, a month

Three lives and more

One step back?

Why's that?

I'll think

How can anyone dream

What it's impossible to know

Not telling you what I think

Is already thinking of saying

And I saw that

The wind takes it away!

I don't know but I feel it's like dreaming

That the effort to remember

Is the wish to forget

And that, why?

Say more

If we don't know anymore

To laugh at each other, my love

Then what's left is to cry

And maybe

If it has to last

Love comes reborn

Blessed by tears

A century, three

If the lives behind

Are part of us

And what's it gonna be?

The wind will slowly say what'll come

And if it rains too much

We'll know for sure from a thunderclap

If someone then smiles in peace

Just from meeting

SONG MEANING

“O Vento” whirls listeners into a poetic meditation on time, memory, and the gentle power of change. The wind in the title is a messenger that carries waves, dreams, and even our unspoken thoughts. As the singer listens to the breeze and watches the sea, he realizes how fleeting life is, wondering what happens after we pass on and whether past lives still echo inside us. The song plays with paradoxes: remembering feels like wanting to forget, thinking of saying something is already a kind of speech. All of this paints a picture of how hard it is to grasp the intangible, yet how beautiful it is to try.

Amid questions and uncertainties, Los Hermanos find hope in love’s ability to be “reborn, blessed by tears.” If laughter between lovers fades, tears can water new beginnings. The wind promises to reveal what is coming, and thunder will make the message unmistakable. In the end, the song invites us to trust the natural rhythms of life, accept what we cannot control, and believe that after the storm someone will smile in peace simply because they have met another heart.
