A Vida do Viajante
Chico Buarque
The Life of the Traveler
"My life is to travel through this country!!"
"I know! I'm following you on my phone!"
My life is to travel through this country
To see if one day I rest happily
Keeping the memories
Of the lands where I passed
Walking through the backlands
And the friends I left there
Rain and sun
Dust and coal
Far from home
I follow the script
Another station
And joy in my heart
My life is to travel through this country
To see if one day I rest happily
Keeping the memories
Of the lands where I passed
Walking through the backlands
And the friends I left there
Sea and land
Winter and summer
I show a smile
I show joy
But, myself, not
And the longing in my heart
My life is to travel through this country
To see if one day I rest happily
Keeping the memories
Of the lands where I passed
Walking through the backlands
And the friends I left there
Rain and sun
Dust and coal
Far from home
I follow the script
Another station
And joy in my heart
My life is to travel through this country
To see if one day I rest happily
Keeping the memories
Of the lands where I passed
Walking through the backlands
And the friends I left there
Sea and land
Winter and summer
I show a smile
I show joy
But, myself, not
And the longing in my heart
