Nas Paredes da Pedra Encantada

Lula Côrtes Lula Côrtes

In the Walls of the Enchanted Stone

When the veils of thought
Unroll within a space
They gain powers as I pass
Through the solar land of the cariris
There's a strange stone that tells me

That the wind hides at a foothill
That fire is a shaman's slave
And that water shall be crystallized
In the walls of the enchanted stone
The secrets carved by Sumé

A chief with colorful skin
Gently conquered the firmament
On a horse flew into oblivion
Of the eternal knowledge of a druid
Through the land he dug his mine

With the planks of Noah's ark
Like legends coming from Abaeté
And like swords of enchanted light
In the walls of the enchanted stone
The secrets carved by Sumé

Riding enraged thunder
Tames the lightning fighting with Pluto
In the star-comets of a backlands
That was a stage for mad Moors
An altar for forgotten gods

He built without fearing Lucifer
Bathed in the tide of the ocean
And deflowered dawn in the mountains
In the walls of the enchanted stone
The secrets carved by Sumé

Sacrifice the innocent lamb
Between the bosoms of the sertaneja mother-of-water
In a duel of guitars is desired
That the sun slowly falls
That the night suddenly gets lost

In a mournful chirp of Guiné
In the hair of the nymph Salomé
In the mirrors of moonlit complexion
In the walls of the enchanted stone
The secrets carved by Sumé
