Meu Menino, Dorme [English translation]

Sleep, sleep

My baby boy, sleep

You, asleep

Dressed in heat

Made of the fabric

With which love is made

You bring me inutilities

Pictures from overseas

My angel with messages

From me to myself

Just

Sleep

Oh, sleep

Oh, my baby boy, sleep

I won't detain you

I'm not your home

Someday you'll be

Fire and then nostalgia

I'm not even looking for loyalty

Life is somewhat crazy

You're one of a kind

And sometimes everything is too little

It's cold

Sleep

Sleep

I keep wandering

Sailing through eternity

You're my snuggled goods

But reality is enough to me

I wanted, for a second,

Instead of heaven

Have a second second

Of your delight and your laughter

But, but

Sleep, my baby boy

Oh, my baby boy

Whisper over my neck

That I should be happy

Though you make no reference

Speaking, to what you wanted

You make me dream

And the life between us

Is too little to talk about

Is much more than a dream

Oh, it hurts...
