Sem em esperar
Without waiting
Madrugada chegou
The dawn has arrived
Eu vou sorrir, eu vou cantar
I will smile, I will sing
Sonhar em outras línguas, dançar
Dreaming in other languages, dancing
Pode viver, deixa cair
You can live, let it fall
Um dia vem de novo o amor
One day love will come again
Corre lá fora, brilha no sol
Run outside, shine in the sun
Ferve na areia, o futebol
Boiling in the sand, the soccer
Samba de roda, mesa de bar
Circle samba, bar table
Você tão longe, outro lugar!
You so far away, in another place!
Sem em esperar
Without waiting
Madrugada chegou
The dawn has arrived
Eu vou sorrir, eu vou cantar
I will smile, I will sing
Sonhar em outras línguas, dançar
Dreaming in other languages, dance
Pode viver, deixa cair
You can live, let it drop
Um dia vem de novo o amor
One day love comes again
Corre lá fora, brilha no sol
Run outside, shine in the sun
Ferve na areia, o futebol
Boils on the sand, football
Samba de roda, mesa de bar
Samba in a circle, bar table
Você tão longe, outro lugar!
You so far away, in another place!
Corre lá fora, brilha no sol
Run outside, shine in the sun
Ferve na areia, o futebol
Boiling on the sand, football
Samba de roda, mesa de bar
Circle samba, bar table
Você tão longe, outro lugar!
You so far away, another place!
Sem em esperar
Without waiting anymore
