A Miragem
Marcus Viana
The Mirage
Ah! If we could count
The turns that life takes
So that we can find
A great love
It's as if we could count
All the stars in the sky
The grains of sand in this sea
Even so
Poor hearts of the lovers
Who cross the desert
In search of a blooming oasis
Risking everything for a mirage
Because they know there is a hidden spring in the sands
Blessed are
Those who drink from it
Because forever
They will be comforted
Only for love
We put our hands
In the fire of passion
And let ourselves burn
Only for love
We move earth and skies
Tearing the seven veils
We leap from the abyss
Without looking back
Only for love
And life is rebuilt
Only for love
We put our hands
In the fire of passion
And let ourselves burn
Only for love
We move earth and skies
Tearing the seven veils
We leap from the abyss
Without looking back
Only for love
Life is rebuilt
And death is no longer
For us
The storm comes
Embraces me and devours me
In your sacred cloak
Blessedness, ecstasy, and glory
Seeds of a love
Sand and dust carried by the desert wind
Tearing the loneliness
The sunflowers return
In the temple of love
A new God is born
And death is no more for us
