Marcha De Quarta-feira De Cinzas
Maria Creuza
Ash Wednesday Parade
Our carnival is over
No one heard singing songs
No one passes by, playing happily
and in the hearts, longing and ashes is what remained
In the streets, what is seen
Is a people who don't even see each other
Who don't smile, kiss, or hug
and walk away,
Dancing and singing love songs
However, it is necessary to sing
more than ever, it is necessary to sing to cheer up the city
The sadness we have
One day will end
Everyone will end
Everyone will smile, hope has returned
And the people happily singing
Because there are so many blue things
There are such great promises of light
So much love to give and we don't even know
I wish to live to see
And play other Carnivals with the beauty of the old carnivals
Such beautiful marches
The people singing their song of peace (3 times)
So much love to give and cheer up the city
