Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Seca Malvada by Zezé Di Camargo & Luciano from Portuguese to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
A chuva que demora
The rain that takes
Tenho que ir embora
I've got to go
Quando abrir essa carta
When you open this letter
Você vai saber, amor, não chora
You'll know, baby, don't cry
Eu já estou na estrada
I'm already on the road
Já vou longe de casa
I'm on my way home
Tudo que eu levo é a coragem
All I take is courage
A dor da saudade, seca malvada
The pain of longing, evil drought
Eu só queria a riqueza
I just wanted the wealth
De ter sobre a mesa o pouco que plantei
To have on the table the little I planted
Como colher na cidade a dignidade
How to harvest in the city the dignity
Que eutanto sonhei
That I dreamed so much
A solidão é a seca no chão
Loneliness is the dry ness on the ground
Que só faz os meus olhos chover
That just makes my eyes rain
Meu coração de luar de sertão
My heart of moonlight of the backcountry
Quer um dia voltar pra você
You want to come back to you one day
