Fui À Beira do Mar
José Afonso
I Went to the Seashore
I went to the seashore
To see what was there
I heard a voice singing
That from afar told me
Oh joyful singer
What about your joy
You have so much to walk
And the night is so cold
Since then plowing
Joy in my chest
I hear someone shouting
Take advantage of the day
I sat down to rest
While it was dawning
Between the sky and the sea
A prow was breaking
Since then beating
In my chest in secret
I feel a voice saying
Persist, persist without fear
