Lyrics

Chico Buarque - Menina dos olhos d'água

Morena dos olhos d'água
Tira os seus olhos do mar
Vem ver que a vida ainda vale
O sorriso que eu tenho
Pra lhe dar Descansa em meu pobre peito
Que jamais enfrenta o mar
Mas que tem abraço estreito, morena
Com jeito de lhe agradar
Vem ouvir lindas histórias
Que por seu amor sonheiChico Buarque - Menina dos olhos d'água - http://motolyrics.com/chico-buarque/menina-dos-olhos-dagua-lyrics-english-translation.html
Vem saber quantas vitórias, morena
Por mares que só eu sei O seu homem foi-se embora
Prometendo voltar já
Mas as ondas não têm hora, morena
De partir ou de voltar
Passa a vela e vai-se embora
Passa o tempo e vai também
Mas meu canto ainda lhe implora, morena
Agora, morena, vem

Chico Buarque - Girl with watery eyes (English translation)

Girl with watery eyes,
Stop looking at the sea
Let me show you that life is still worth
The smile that I have been
Keeping for you

Lay here in my chest in pain
It has never challenged the sea's waters
But in it, girl, you'll find an warm embrace
In a way that will please you
Come, listen to the beautiful stories
That I have dreamt, inspired by your loveChico Buarque - Menina dos olhos d'água - http://motolyrics.com/chico-buarque/menina-dos-olhos-dagua-lyrics-english-translation.html
Let me tell you of my conquests,
Through seas that no one but I know

Your man is gone
He promised to come back soon
But these waves don't tell us
The right time to leave or return
They set sail and go
Time passes and goes away also
But here's my song for you, claiming mercy
Now, girl, come to me...
