Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Lanterna Dos Afogados by Os Paralamas do Sucesso from Portuguese to English.
Quando 'tá escuro e ninguém te ouve
When it's dark and nobody hears you
Quando chega a noite e você pode chorar
When night comes and you can cry
Há uma luz no túnel dos desesperados
There's a light in the tunnel of the desperate
Há um cais de porto pra quem precisa chegar
There's a harbor pier for whoever needs to arrive
Eu 'to na lanterna dos afogados
I'm at the lantern of the drowned
Eu 'to te esperando, vê se não vai demorar
I'm waiting for you, don't take too long
Uma noite longa pra uma vida curta
A long night for a short life
Mas já não me importa basta poder te ajudar
But I don't care anymore, it's enough that I can help you
E são tantas marcas que já fazem parte
And there are so many marks that already are part
Do que eu sou agora mas ainda sei me virar
Of what I am now, but I still know how to get by
Eu 'to na lanterna dos afogados
I'm at the lantern of the drowned
Eu 'to te esperando, vê se não vai demorar
I'm waiting for you, don't take too long
Uma noite longa pra uma vida curta
A long night for a short life
Mas já não me importa basta poder te ajudar
But I don't care anymore, it's enough that I can help you
Eu 'to na lanterna dos afogados
I'm at the lantern of the drowned
Eu 'to te esperando
I'm waiting for you
