Pai e Mãe
Gilberto Gil
Father and Mother
I spent a long time
Learning to kiss other men
Like I kiss my father
I spent a long time
To know that the woman I loved
That I love, that I will love
Will always be the woman
Like my mother
How is it, my mother?
How are your fears?
My father, how are you?
Tell him not to be upset with me
When he sees me kissing any other man
Tell him that when I kiss a friend
I am sure to be someone like he is
Someone with his strength to protect me
Someone with his affection to comfort me
Someone with eyes and heart wide open
To understand me
