Adeus [English translation]

My Love

Without life I lie here

Provided to begin with

I'm fine if I am without you

Well I asked for the pictures to help

They are dumb, ungrateful

Are you coming else I die

Not even longing

Brings me consolation

I want a truth

I do not want an illusion

In my soul I am still hurting

Gentle your voice

When the boat was so bad for us.

Goodbye

Don't avert your eyes from mine

See that even afar the hovering haze

Is consummated between the waves and the skies.

Goodbye

Don't avert your eyes from mine

Give them caresses

That they part blinded by the love for yours

I know that you exist

And I also know my Zé (José)

What sad words

And one of them is:

What tortures me, the distance

I do not know if it can be tougher

In my ignorance.

There are beautiful words

But almost the forgotten

Veil, engagement, stars,

Altar and others as well

When you hear them

All is sunshine, Jesus,

Today only you know them without light.
