The River


O Rio

and they came to the river

E eles vieram para o rio

and they came from the road

E eles vieram da estrada

and he wanted the sun

e ele quis o sol

just to call his own

apenas para chamar a si mesmo

and they walked on the dirt

e eles andaram na lama

and they walked from the road

e eles andaram do caminho

til they came to the river

até chegarem ao rio

til they came up close

até chegarem perto



Throw your pain in the river

atire sua dor no rio

To be washed away slow

para ser lavada devagar



and we walked without words

e eles andaram sem palavras

and we walked with our lives

e eles andaram com as nossas vidas

two silent birds

dois pássaros quietos

circled by

passaram perto

Like our pain in the river

Como a nossa dor no rio



and we followed the river

e nós seguimos o rio

and we followed the road

e nós seguimos a estrada

and we walked through this land

e nós caminhamos por esta terra

and we called it a home

e nós a chamamos de lar

but he wanted the sun

mas ele quis o sol

and I wanted the whole

e eu quis tudo

and the white light scatters

e a luz branca dispersa

and the sun sets low

e o sol se põe fraco

Like the pain in the river

como a dor no rio
