Viola Está Chorando
João Mineiro e Marciano
Viola is Crying
I carry in my chest such a painful longing
So cruel, so daring that I can't control
In my thoughts, that wonderful flower
Dark and beautiful flower that left and won't return
I remember the nights of songs and poetry
All night long we'd go, and I sang just for her
My song is sad since she left
Because even my viola cries missing her
Viola is crying
My heart is crying
My despair, my suffocation
Slowly crumbled in the magic of the song
Caught in the claws of this impulsive pain
Like a drifting boat, I'm living just to live
Living without her is to have no Sun, no shelter
It's more than a punishment, it's worse than dying
I release my scream, my plea, my lament
Go my song, go in the wind, go to where she is
And ask her to give back my life
I'm in a dead-end, ask her to come back
