Portugal

When I arrived there, eyes didn't convey, lungs no longer breathed
Hearts no longer beat, faces only scared
Children who consumed what was on TV
Machines restart, factories that closed
All the rich smiled, all the poor cried
They gave all the legs to the pigs, who stole from the people
While the land burned, they furnished the assembly
Speaking later to the news that worried
Belly that empties, bottles approached
Father is killed by the daughter, they didn't count on that
In what I saw they didn't believe, Portuguese left, the German entered
One troop remained, the rest emigrated
Didn't know where they were going, but here it didn't work
Didn't want to give their body to the bullet, but they did
In the soul of those who fought, against those who defamed the country
Don't follow the fingers that pointed
That I asked about the misery
And all the fingers pointed me to Portugal

Because the country I belong to
Country by the sea and enchanted by what I know
I want to live as I want, because I belong to the country
Country belongs to no one
I don't want my dream to turn sad
Or have others live for me
