Debaixo Dos Caracóis Dos Seus Cabelos
Erasmo Carlos
Under the Snails of Your Hair
One day the white sand will touch your feet
And the blue water of the sea will wet your hair
Windows and doors will open to see you arrive
And feeling at home, you will smile and cry
Under the snails of your hair
A story to tell of a world so distant
Under the snails of your hair
A sob and the desire to stay a little longer
The lights and colors you see now
In the streets you walk, in the house you live
You look at everything and nothing makes you happy
You only wish to return to your people now
Under the snails of your hair
A story to tell of a world so distant
Under the snails of your hair
A sob and the desire to stay a little longer
You walk in the afternoon and your sad gaze
Lets a longing and a dream bleed in your chest
One day I will see you arriving with a smile
Stepping on the white sand that is your paradise
Under the snails of your hair
A story to tell of a world so distant
Under the snails of your hair
A sob and the desire to stay a little longer
