Aqui No Mar (Versão 2023)
A Pequena Sereia / The Little Mermaid / La Sirenita
Here in the Sea (2023 Version)
[Sebastião]
Hey, Ariel, listen here
The human world is a mess
The underwater life is much better than everything they have there
The fruit of my neighbor
Looks better than mine
Your dream of going up there
I believe it's a mistake
You have comfort down here
Almost too much
Our world is so beautiful
What more do you want?
Where I was born
Where I grew up
It's wetter, I'm fascinated by everything here
There they work all day
There they are slaves to money
Life is good, I live carefree, where I was born
The fish lives happily
Here under the sea
And the fish that goes to land
Doesn't know where it will end up
Sometimes, it goes to an aquarium
Which is not bad actually
But when man is hungry
The fish ends up on the plate (oh no)
Let me tell you
Here in the sea
No one follows us
Or chases us to fry us
If the fish want to see the Sun
Beware of the hook
Even the dark is safer
[Sebastião and Ariel]
Here in the sea (here in the sea)
Hey, where I was born (where I was born), that's it
In this ocean, year in, year out
Everything is here (everything is here)
And the fish stop swimming
When it's time to play
We have the groove that is all ours
Here in the sea
[Sebastião]
Pay attention
Triton plays the flute and the carp on the harp
The sole on the bass, I can't find a better sound
And here in the brass there are too many fish
Wait, we have more, yeah
No one plays badly, not even the cod
The trout dancing, the anchovy singing
Even the salmon comes to the hall
And look who's coming to play
[Sebastião and Ariel]
Yeah, here in the sea (here in the sea)
Here in the sea (here in the sea)
Even the sardine joins in mine
And comes to sing (and comes to sing)
And if they have heaps of sand
We have a mermaid choir, yeah
Any mollusk, whenever I search
Knows how to play
[Sebastião]
Even the little snail comes out of its shell and dances
The snail plays a little tune
That's why we from here are hot
And don't complain, even in the mud
Here in the sea
