Na bruma leve das paixões que vem de dentro
In the gentle mist of passions that rise from within
Tu vens 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, shirtless, hair in the wind
E o sol quarando nossas roupas no varal
And the sun drying our clothes on the line
Na bruma leve das paixões que vem de dentro
In the gentle mist of passions that rise from within
Tu vens 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, shirtless, hair in the wind
E o sol quarando nossas roupas no varal
And the sun drying our clothes on the line
Tu vens, tu vens
You come, you come
Eu já escuto os teus sinais
I can 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 voice of an angel whispered in my ear
Eu não duvido, já escuto os teus sinais
I don't doubt, 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
Na bruma leve das paixões que vem de dentro
In the gentle mist of passions that come from within
Tu vens 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 drying our clothes on the line
Tu vens, tu vens
You come, you come
Eu já escuto os teus sinais
I can already hear your signs
Tu vens, tu vens
You come, you come
Eu já escuto os teus sinais
I can already hear your signs
A voz do anjo sussurrou no meu ouvido
The voice of the angel whispered in my ear
Eu não duvido, já escuto os teus sinais
I don't doubt it, I can 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're coming, you're coming
Eu já escuto os teus sinais
I can already hear your signs
Tu vens, tu vens
You're coming, you're coming
Eu já escuto os teus sinais
I can already hear your signs
