Pastel de Luna
A Caminho da Lua (Over The Moon)
Mooncake
I wrap the filling, press
Sift flour, crack eggs
Then knead every hour
We start again
I wrap the filling, press
I shape the bun
I glaze it and don't splash
What a gift to the palate
If a mooncake is good
It's kneaded with love
It's prepared with care
Sweet
Soft tradition
If a mooncake is good
It has magic inside
Rich aroma and magic in taste
Add five more
Or maybe twelve, our cousins visit us
And you know how they are
They'll be gone
I think we'll take twenty more
And the Moon gives a message in them
You have to appreciate life and love
A cake with magic
That carries inside
A vivid memory
Of love
