Dois Rios Lyrics in English Skank

Home / Lyrics Translation / Skank / Dois Rios

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Dois Rios by Skank from Portuguese to English.

The sky is on the ground

The sky doesn't fall from above

It's the light, it's the darkness

The sky that touches the ground

And the sky that goes up high

Two sides joined hands

As I did too

Just to get to know

What the voice of life comes to say

That arms feel

And eyes see

Let lips be

Two whole rivers

Directionless

The sun is the foot and the hand

The sun is mother and father

It dissolves darkness

The sun sets, it goes

And after setting

The sun's reborn in Japan

I saw it too

Just so I could understand

In life's voice I heard it said

That arms feel

And eyes see

And the lips kiss

Two whole rivers

Directionless

And my place is this

By your side, in the whole body

I give my place 'cause your place

Is my first love

The day and the night, the four seasons

The sky is on the ground

The sky doesn't fall from above

It's the light, it's the darkness

The sky that touches the ground

And the sky that goes up high

Two sides joined hands

As I did too

Just to get to know

What the voice of life comes to say

That arms feel

And eyes see

That lips kiss

Two whole rivers

Directionless

And my place is this

By your side, in the whole body

I give my place 'cause your place

Is my first love

The day and the night the four seasons

That arms feel

And eyes see

That lips kiss

Two whole rivers

Directionless

SONG MEANING

In "Dois Rios" Skank invites us into a poetic landscape where opposites melt into each other. The sky does not stay above, it rests on the ground, light blends with darkness, day blends with night. These images show how love can erase borders, letting two sides hold hands just as two rivers meet and flow together without needing a fixed destination.

The song keeps circling this idea of unity: the sun is both "mother and father," it sets on one side of the planet only to be reborn in Japan, reminding us that what seems separate is actually connected. In the same way, the singer finds his true place beside the person he loves, offering his whole being. Arms feel, eyes see, lips kiss, and two rivers become one current of affection. "Dois Rios" is ultimately a celebration of harmony, showing that when hearts join, contrasts lose their meaning and everything moves in one beautiful, shared flow.
