Presente de Um Beija-Flor

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now

Just look at the white mist that comes from behind the bamboo grove
Does it do me good or does it harm me
I will surf in the crazy clouded blue sky
Of the capital of my country
To see if I forget about the poverty and violence
That makes my people unhappy

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now

And the girl who one day by chance came to tell me
That she didn't like boys so laid back
Who play reggae and MPB
But that's such a trivial thing
Compared to the beauty of the Central Plateau
And the people who make the Cerrado
Almost an ideal habitat

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now

I thank for being here, expressing the emotion
And putting my ideas, feelings
In the form of a song

I thank for being able to sing and see you listen
And try to understand this message
That I want to convey

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now

End of the year I'm leaving Brasília
To see the sea
But tell mom by the end of February
That I'll be back

To surf in the crazy clouded blue sky
Of the capital of my country
To see if I forget about the poverty and violence
That makes my people unhappy

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now

Hummingbird that brought my love
Flew away
Look how beautiful my love is
I am happy now
