Shimbalaiê [English translation]

Shimbalaie, when i see the sun kissing the sea

Shimbalaie, every time that he goes to sleep

Nature, goddess of living

Pure beauty of birth

A flower shining in the light

Fisherman between the sea and the hook

Free thoughts like the sky

Imagine a paper boat

Going away to never return

Going like Iemanja

Chorus (2X)

Shimbalaie, when i see the sun kissing the sea

Shimbalaie, every time that he goes to sleep

How long will it be to learn

That a flower has life at birth

That a flower shining in the light

Fishing between the sea and the hook

Chorus (2X)

Shimbalaie, when i see the sun kissing the sea

Shimbalaie, every time that he goes to sleep

Being a captain of this world

Able to roll without borders

Live a year in seconds

Appreciate dreams as more than silliness

Become enchanted with books

That speak about vanity

When you like may it be needed

Being able to tell the truth

Chorus (4X)

Shimbalaie, when i see the sun kissing the sea

Shimbalaie, every time that he goes to sleep
