Tardei

• 歌手: Rodrigo Amarante

歌詞:

[Português]

[English]

Tardei, tardei, tardei

I delayed, I delayed, I delayed

Mas cheguei, enfim

But I finally arrived

Pra cada "adeus", um nó

For every "goodbye", a knot

Cada conta o fio do rosário que eu

Each counts the thread of the rosary that I

Vim banhar

Came to bathe

Pra lhe dar

To give to you

Tardei, tardei, tardei

I delayed, I delayed, I delayed

Só na volta eu vi

Only on the way back did I see

Qual senda me levou

Which path led me

Qual me trouxe aqui

Which brought me here

Pra encontrar você

To find you

Onde está

Where is

Meu lugar?

My place?

...

...

Desceu pelo rio

It flowed down the river

Da terra pro mar

From the land to the sea

Um fio de prata que me leva

A silver thread that takes me

Tardei, tardei, tardei

I delayed, I delayed, I delayed

Que na vinda eu quis

That on the way I wanted

Pela primeira vez

For the first time

Nunca mais partir

Never to leave again

E esperar você

And wait for you

O meu lugar

My place

Onde está?

Where is?

...

...

Desceu pelo rio

It flowed down the river

Da terra pro mar

From the land to the sea

Um fio de prata que me leva

A silver thread that takes me

...
