Antes Que Seja Tarde
Ivan Lins
Before It's Too Late
With strength and will
Happiness will spread
With all intensity
It will wet the dry
Dry the eyes
Illuminate the alleys
Before it's too late
It will raid the bars
And reclaim the streets
And visit the homes
Before it's too late
It will tear apart the darkness
And bless the day
And keep the stones
Before it's too late
It will leave seeds
In the most blessed fruit
In the earth and in the womb
Before it's too late
It will make a fuss
And free the dreams
Of our youth
Before it's too late
It will change the men
Before the flame goes out
Before faith ends
Before it's too late.
