Sou um pobre timoneiro
I'm a poor helmsman
Na noite imensa do mar
In the immense night of the sea
A sul da minha solidão o cruzeiro
South of my solitude the cruise
Luz no céu para me guiar
Light in the sky to guide me
Lanterna de navegar
Flashlight to navigate
Alivia-me a pressão
Relieves me of the pressure
Que o leme está a queimar
That the rudder is burning
Estamos longe do destino
We're far from fate
E eu não sei onde é que isto vai parar
And I don't know where this is going to end
Cruzeiro do sul
Southern Cruise
Cruzeiro do sul
Southern Cruise
Lua não troces de mim
Moon don't change from me
Tão longe de casa eu sei
So far from home I know
O medo dança com as sombras
Fear dances with the shadows
E eu vejo o que imaginei
And I see what I imagined
Estou sózinho junto ao leme
I'm alone by the rudder
Não é tempo de poetas
It's not poet sit
Já tombaram mais de dez
More than ten have fallen
E nós ainda aqui às voltas
And we're still around here
Procurando coisas que deus não fez
Looking for things God didn't do
Cruzeiro do sul
Southern Cruise
Cruzeiro do sul
Southern Cruise
Cruzeiro do sul
Southern Cruise
Cruzeiro do sul
Southern Cruise
