Anunciação [English translation]

Maria, Maria

Our sun is close (nearby)

Tonight I saw him in a dream

Calling me

I could notice him before

Tonight I saw him suddenly, vaguely

Maria, Maria

Maria I'm afraid you won't make it in time

That he appears in my nocturnal room

With a knife in hand

And a violent smile on his lips

It's necessary to stop him from growing away from us

And don't recognize us

Maria, Maria

Don't think I'm crazy

Our son is already born

And if we are not aware

How will we know

That our own flesh kills us

Maria, Maria

(Try even arriving *

red head of hair

Like a conflagration more beautiful than us) **

While we think

That lies yet

Inside the shoebox

Don't let our son

Replace your milk

With that of the beasts

Maria, Maria

Maria

Don't delude yourself with pills or other methods

Too late for providence ***

Tonight, Maria, tonight he yelled your name

Maria, Maria
