Maria Bethânia

Maria Bethânia
You are to me,
The Lady of Engenho
In dreams I see you
Maria Bethânia
You are all I have,
How much sadness I feel in my chest,
Just thinking,
That my dream is shattered.

Maria Bethânia,
Do you still remember that São João?
Your words,
Fell deep into my heart,
You looked at me, with emotion,
And unintentionally,
I put my hand in yours.

Maria Bethânia,
You miss everything, I know well,
However, I also feel,
Longing for the kiss I never gave you
I see you live with splendor,
On my lips
To increase my pain.

Maria Bethânia,
I never thought everything would end like this,
Maria Bethânia,
By God I ask you,
Have mercy on me,
Today I confess, with regret,
That I didn't know, nor understood love!!!
