Xote de Navegação

I see that river sliding
Time crossing my village
And sometimes I let go
Of the chores
I find myself dreaming
Sailing

With the name Patience
Goes my boat
Swinging like time
And having the same destination
For those who walk on the ferry
Everything, everything passes
Only time doesn't

Scenes of many colors pass by
The same dock passes by and back
In the same moment I see the flower
Blooming and fading
This is your music
It's your breath
But I only have your handkerchief
In my hand

Looking at my ship
The impatient foreman
Shouts from the riverbank
That sails backwards
On the deck, I go gloomy
Hair of a boy
Through the endless
And never-ending river
