Virou Areia
Lenine
Turned to Sand
Where's the stone sphinx that used to be there
Turned to sand
Where's the forest that the sea once saw from there
Turned to sand
Where's the woman waiting for the fisherman
Turned to sand
Where's the castle where a king once slept
Turned to sand
And the book where God's finger wrote the law
Turned to sand
Where's the savior's shroud
Turned to sand
Sand the moon hitting the ground in the yard
Sand the beaten clay rising in the air
Sand the boy sitting on the edge of the beach
Sand making a castle in the sea with his hand
And the wave that rose and passed
Turned to sand
Born in the sea and ended on land
Turned to sand
Where's the voice that enchanted the crowd, where
Turned to sand
Where's the past, the present, the passion
Turned to sand
Where's the emperor's wall
Turned to sand
