Lyrics:

[Português]

[English]

Na bruma leve das paixões que vem de dentro

In the light mist of passions that come from within

Tu vem chegando pra brincar no meu quintal

You come arriving to play in my backyard

No teu cavalo, peito nu, cabelo ao vento

On your horse, bare-chested, hair in the wind

E o sol quarando nossas roupas no varal

And the sun bleaching our clothes on the clothesline

Na bruma leve das paixões que vem de dentro

In the light mist of passions that come from within

Tu vem chegando pra brincar no meu quintal

You come arriving to play in my backyard

No teu cavalo, peito nu, cabelo ao vento

On your horse, bare-chested, hair in the wind

E o sol quarando nossas roupas no varal

And the sun bleaching our clothes on the clothesline

Tu vens, tu vens

You come, you come

Eu já escuto os teus sinais

I already hear your signs

Tu vens, tu vens

You come, you come

Eu já escuto os teus sinais

I already hear your signs

A voz do anjo sussurrou no meu ouvido

The angel's voice whispered in my ear

Eu não duvido, já escuto os teus sinais

I don't doubt it, I already hear your signs

Que tu virias numa manhã de domingo

That you would come on a Sunday morning

Eu te anuncio nos sinos das catedrais

I announce you in the bells of the cathedrals

Tu vens, tu vens

You come, you come

Eu já escuto os teus sinais

I already hear your signs

Tu vens, tu vens

You come, you come

Eu já escuto os teus sinais

I already hear your signs
