Fortaleza

White sails of the sea are emerging
With the first stars of the sky
Where the green of the afternoon is most beautiful
And the blue only needs God

If this city is my world
Mucuripe, you were never mine
Your deep charm enveloped me
Like a raft that the wind forgot
But when I sing about the beauty
That we will still create
Without disregarding the wealth
Fortress, I only think of you

I just want to say
That the city is the light
That illuminates the smiling boys
Beyond imagination
I carry you in my heart
