Só No Balanço do Mar
Lenine
Only In the Sea's Swing
I've sailed through storms and calm seas
At noon, the sunlight deceives
I set fire to the sea of melancholy
To fish for your joy
I was the bait and the hook
My ship, captain of my loves
In every port, left a passion
The wind changes the course of my flavors
I sailed through all colors
To become a chameleon
And now that I've arrived
I want to take you
In the mermaid's song
In Iemanjá's embrace
It's me, it's me, it's me, sailor
Who taught you to swim, it's me, it's me, it's me
Sailor alone
In the sea's swing
The solid ground is to be lost from sight
I follow the straight line of my gaze
I go beyond the horizon
My desire is my bridge
A mystery to guide me
I am the longing of Chico Ferreira and Bento
I am the raft that returned without a fisherman
I am the lighthouse that guides the inattentive
I curve in the wind
