O Mundo é um Moinho [English translation]

It’s still early, love

You’ve only just started experiencing life

And you’re already announcing your departure

Without even knowing what direction to take

Pay attention, darling

Even though I know you’re determined

With each turn your life will fall a little

Soon you will no longer be who you are

Listen to me, love

Pay attention, the world is a mill

It will crush your petty dreams

It will turn your hopes into dust

Pay attention, darling

From each love you will only take cynicism

When you realise you will be on the edge of abyss

Abyss that you dug with your own feet
