Leve na lembrança
Take in souvenir
A singela melodia que eu fiz
The simple melody I made
Pra ti, ó bem amada
For you, O well loved
Princesa, olhos d'água
Princess, eyes of water
Quero te ver clara
I want to see you clear
Clareando a noite intensa deste amor
Lightening the intense night of this love
O céu é teu sorriso
The sky is your smile
No branco do teu rosto
On the white of your face
A irradiar ternura
Radiating tenderness
Quero que desprendas
I want you to let go
De qualquer temor que sintas
Any fear you feel
Tens o teu escudo
You have your shield
Tens na mão, querida
You've got it in your hand, baby
De uma flor que inspira um beijo ardente
Of a flower inspiring a burning kiss
Um convite para amar
An invitation to love
