Maria Rosa

I exchanged Maria Rosa's kiss
Capricious woman for a revelry
Maria Rosa who loved me so much
Wanted me so much and I didn't reciprocate
Sweet, thousand, marvelous Maria

Rose petal, a flower bud
A love space filled with affection
And I, a thorn branch scratching our love
If she knew how much it hurts
The heart grinding this raw longing
She would send just a bit of news

So as not to see the police arrest me on the street
Time intoxicates the sorrows
Cachaça is not water, I know that by heart
But what's the use of my lucidity
If I search for myself and every time I only find myself alone

Maria where are you now
Maria where did you go
Maria one of these days I'll find you
Weakness is a man's thing
Come take care of what is yours
