A Bela e a Fera
Chico Buarque
Beauty and the Beast
Hear the declaration, oh beautiful one, of a dreaming titan
One who ties a knot in parallel and has lunch on a roller coaster
The strongest man on the planet, Superman's chest
Superman's chest and a poet's heart
The star, oh beautiful one, would not shine without night behind it
Your gazelle-like beauty beneath my body
It's just another spark on a twig
Burning sugarcane fields
Burning sugarcane fields
I almost wrote a sonnet!
More than the moon or the comet or the constellation
The blood printed in the newspaper has more inspiration
In the belly of the illiterate, macaroni letters
Pasta letters make concrete poem
Oh beauty, generate spring, activate your magic
Oh beauty, make the beast a Christian prince
Receive your poet oh beautiful one, open your heart!
Open your heart or I'll break the window!
