Sonhei Que Viajava Com Você [English translation]

I dreamed I was traveling with you, on a vessel

That sailed through the sea, not afraid of sharks

Towards the Orient we always went forward

Far from our home, far from our drought

Alone, on the sea, destination: Japan

A chest bringing samba, caipirinha, bringing quentão

To exchange for rice, karate, meditation

To exchange for ninjas, tatamis, for precision

I dreamed I was traveling with you, on a vessel

That floated way above an erupting volcano

Towards the Orient, hot wind, feet far from the ground

I flew without wings, just like imagination does

The two of us, high, safe and sound towards Japan

Bringing in a bag honey, oranges and basil

To exchange for sake, for soy sauce, dedication

To exchange for judo, ofuro, for decisions

I dreamed I was traveling with you, on a plane

That moved breaking the barrier of sound

Fast, the Orient was the direction

The plane flipped its wings, pure perfection

To be exact, we were flying headed to Japan

Bringing on our cases gourds, dried meat, flour and beans

To exchange for sushi, for green tea, for devotion

To exchange for haikai, samurai, for video-sound

To exchange for sushi, for green tea, for devotion

To exchange for haikai, samurai, for video-sound
