[English]
I wrote your name in the sand
The blood that runs in me comes from your vein
Look, you are the only one who doesn't value me
So why is it that this value
Is what I still want to have
I have everything in my hands, but I have nothing
So it's better to have nothing and fight for what I want
Yeah, but wait a minute
Listen to the forró playing and many people there
It's not the time to cry
However, it's not a sin if I talk about love
If I sing feeling, whatever it may be
Take me where I want to go
If you want, you can come too
Listen to my heart
That beats in time
With the passion of the zabumba
It's for the deaf to hear, for the blind to see
That this xote makes miracles happen
It's for the deaf to hear, for the blind to see
That this xote makes miracles happen
It's for the deaf to hear, for the blind to see
That this xote makes miracles happen
It's for the deaf to hear, for the blind to see
Falamansa makes miracles happen
I wrote your name in the sand
The blood that runs in me comes from your vein
Look, you are the only one who doesn't value me
So why is it that this value
Is what I still want to have
I have everything in my hands, but I have nothing
So it's better to have nothing and fight for what I want
Yeah, but wait a minute
Listen to the forró playing and many people there
It's not the time to cry
However, it's not a sin if I talk about love
If I sing feeling, whatever it may be
Take me where I want to go
If you want, you can come too
Listen to my heart
That beats in time
With the passion of the zabumba
It's for the deaf to hear, for the blind to see
That this xote makes miracles happen
It's for the deaf to hear, for the blind to see
That this xote makes miracles happen
It's for the deaf to hear, for the blind to see
That this xote makes miracles happen
It's for the deaf to hear, for the blind to see
Falamansa makes miracles happen

Key Grammar Structures

  • Escrevi seu nome na areia

    ➔ Preterite Perfect Simple (Past Simple)

    ➔ The verb "escrevi" is in the preterite perfect simple tense, indicating a completed action in the past. It directly translates to "I wrote".

  • O sangue que corre em mim sai da tua veia

    ➔ Relative Clause with "que"

    ➔ The phrase "que corre em mim" is a relative clause modifying "o sangue" (the blood). The word "que" acts as the relative pronoun, meaning "that" or "which". It specifies *which* blood is being referred to.

  • Então por que será que esse valor / É o que eu ainda quero ter

    ➔ Subjunctive Mood (Será que), Cleft Sentence Structure (É o que...)

    "Será que" expresses doubt or speculation, suggesting the subjunctive mood. The structure "É o que..." is a cleft sentence, used to emphasize a particular part of the sentence. In this case, it emphasizes *what* the speaker still wants to have.

  • Tenho tudo nas mãos, mas não tenho nada

    ➔ Contrastive Conjunction "mas"

    ➔ The conjunction "mas" (but) expresses a contrast between having everything in hand and having nothing. It highlights the paradox of the situation.

  • Então melhor ter nada e lutar pelo que eu quiser

    ➔ Infinitive as Noun (ter), Relative Pronoun with Preposition (pelo que)

    ➔ Here, "ter" (to have) functions as a noun. "Pelo que eu quiser" means "for what I want," combining the preposition "por" (for) with the relative pronoun "que" (what).

  • Ouça o forró tocando e muita gente aí

    ➔ Imperative Mood (Ouça), Gerund (tocando)

    "Ouça" is the imperative form of the verb "ouvir" (to listen), meaning "Listen!". "Tocando" is the gerund form, indicating an ongoing action.

  • Porém não é pecado se eu falar de amor

    ➔ Conditional Clause with "se"

    ➔ The clause "se eu falar de amor" (if I speak of love) introduces a condition. The main clause "não é pecado" (it is not a sin) is dependent on this condition.

  • Que bate no compasso / Da zabumba de paixão

    ➔ Relative Pronoun "Que", preposition "Da" (de + a)

    "Que" refers back to "meu coração" ."Da" is a contraction of the preposition "de" and the definite article "a", and means "of the".
