Relógio Quebrado
Lourenço e Lourival
Broken Clock
I'm going to tell you a story in the lives of two brothers
Who lived arguing about religion
José, who was the oldest, had his devotion
When he went to bed, he said his prayers
His brother Durvalino spoke laughing
Stop talking to yourself, it doesn't do you any good
You better go to sleep so you can wake up at dawn
I won't lose sleep listening to idle talk
If you don't believe it, you don't have to believe it
But that there is another world, I want to prove it to you
If one day I die first, and my soul is saved
I'm going to surprise you that you won't like
One day José went away and told his brother
Keep this watch, a reminder of our grandfather
And they never met again, many years passed
The dismantled clock on the wall remained there!
One night Durvalino woke up very scared
Listening to those slow, well-paced beats
He counted twelve bells, his body got goosebumps
Midnight ticking on your broken clock
He spent the night nervous about what happened to him
Early the next day he received a telegram
He opened it to see what it was, his body shook
It said that at midnight, his brother José died!
