Madredeus - A Tempestade

Letra: Pedro Ayres Magalhes
Msica: Jos Peixoto
Corre a menina beira do mar
corre, corre, pela praia fora
que belo dia que est no est
e o primeiro a chegar no perde
Andam as ondas a rebentar
e o relgio a marcar horas
a sombra quente, e quase no h
e o sol a brilhar j ferve
Corre a menina beira do mar
corre enquanto a gaivota voa
vem o menino para a apanhar
e a menina sentindo foge
Anda o barquinho a navegar
vem do Porto para LisboaMadredeus - A Tempestade - http://motolyrics.com/madredeus/a-tempestade-lyrics-english-translation.html
foge a menina da beira mar
foge logo quando a mar sobe
Andam a brincar
na praia do mar
as ondas do mar
andam a rebentar
na praia do mar
andam a brincar
as ondas do mar
andam a rebentar
as ondas do mar
andam a rebentar
E to bonita a onda que vem
como a outra que vejo ao fundo
a espuma branca que cada tem
a vida de todo o mundo

English translation

Madredeus - The Storm (English translation)

The large dark cloud disappears
The madness of the torment is dissolved
Flatly and slowly the tide now recedes
The seagulls take flight without delay

They fly silently over their rocks
Of so many already dormant waves and foam
While the sun shines anew
Now fearlessly kissing the sand

I went to see
I went to see
The storm
I came running

I went to seeMadredeus - A Tempestade - http://motolyrics.com/madredeus/a-tempestade-lyrics-english-translation.html
I went to see
The storm
I came running

Wood debris in the current
Reveal what used to be a bow
Painted with tenderness and many colours
In the style of these our good people

The drama of those awaiting on the cliff remains
For those whom God has already destined to eternity
And it is a lesson that against God there can be no will
The calm fury of the great longing remains.
