Teu olhar, meu olhar, nosso olhar
Your gaze, my gaze, our gaze
Tuas mãos, minhas mãos, a emoção
Your hands, my hands, the emotion
A noite a se perder
The night to get lost
Nos faz, meu amor, outra vez
Makes us, my love, once again
Amar, sonhar
To love, to dream
É manhã na manhã do adeus
It's morning in the morning of farewell
Repousa teus lábios nos meus
Rest your lips on mine
Um beijo irá fazer
A kiss will make
Teu olhar, meu olhar
Your gaze, my gaze
Outra vez
Once again
Amar, chorar
Love, cry
É manhã na manhã do adeus
It's morning in the morning of goodbye
Repousa teus lábios nos meus
Lay your lips on mine
Um beijo irá fazer
A kiss will make
Teu olhar, meu olhar
Your gaze, my gaze
Outra vez
Once again
Amar, chorar
Love, cry
