Sevasdà [English translation]

Here...

I really wanted to come

And say, once again, that I wanted

To live as if every day

Were the last day of my life.

And in life, thus it is, desire has accompanied me.

Here...

Grass grows green as I walk

While tasting the dewdrops;

The day is already arranging the table

With the horizon brought by the dawn.

And life is, thus, the smallest of all jasmine blossoms.

Here...

Your letter has reached me today,

When I needed it the most,

And this little bit of you that enters my home

Soothes my longing.

And life is, thus, both the earth and the heavens to me.

Here...

A conversation at midnight,

A burning stare,

Make a little bit more pleasant

An overpopulated city.

And life is, thus, like the road to friendship.

[Instrumental]

Here...

And the prayer each morning

To all the gods of life,

Places some myrtle at Aphrodite's feet

With leaves of poetry.

And life, thus is it, slowly falls in love with me.

Here...

I really wanted to come

And say, once again, that I wanted

To live as if every day

Were the last day of my life.

And life, thus is it, slowly falls in love with me.
