Amor Em Tempo De Muros

• Por: Pedro Abrunhosa, Lila Downs

Letra:

[Português]

[English]

Partir é ferro que arde

Leaving is burning iron

Sem que se parta a lembrança

Without the memory breaking

Que a mão esquerda te guarde

May the left hand keep you safe

Enquanto a noite avança

While the night moves on

Eu hei-de voltar

I shall return

Prometo

I promise

Se alguém perguntar

If anyone asks

Eu volto

I'll return

E se eu demorar

And if I take long

Dá-me o teu beijo apertado

Give me your tight kiss

E que nos vejam dançar

And let them see us dance

Ohohoh

Ohohoh

Ohohoh

Ohohoh

Somos do lado dos puros

We are on the side of the pure

Meu amor

My love

Amor em tempo de muros

Love in a time of walls

Préstame tus alas

Lend me your wings

Siempre supiste volar

You always knew how to fly

Te doy mis ojos en brasa

I give you my eyes burning like embers

Los tuyos no han de llorar

Yours shall not weep

Yo he de traerte

I shall bring you

El fuego

The fire

He de liberarte

I shall set you free

Lo juro

I swear it

Y he de salvarte

And I shall save you

Dame tu beso callado

Give me your silent kiss

De lejos voy a llegar

From afar I shall arrive

Ohohoh

Ohohoh

Ohohoh

Ohohoh

Somos del lado de los puros

We are on the side of the pure

Mi amor

My love

Amor en tiempo de muros

Ohohoh

Son días oscuros

Mi amor

My love

Amor en tiempo de muros

Love in a time of walls

Andam cobras no caminho

Snakes walk the path

E das pedras do moinho

And from the millstones

Hicieron alta la muralla

They made the wall high

Batalla Dios para quedarse

God battles to stay

Ohohoh

Ohohoh

Ohohoh

Ohohoh

Somos do lado dos puros

We are on the side of the pure

Meu amor

Amor em tempo de muros
