Não Vou Sair
Nilson Chaves
I'm Not Going Out
Our generation
Didn't have much chance
To assert ourselves, to shine, to be happy
With nothing ahead, that situation arose
To move, to leave this country
And then you left for Canada
But I stayed in the 'I'll be right there'
Because when I was getting ready to go
I caught sight of the moon
And the moon hit the sea
And I just kept staying
Distant so many miles
The winters are sad
I'm not going out, it's bad here but it will change
The elders of Brasília
Cannot be eternal
Worse than it was, worse than it is, it won't stay
I'm not going out, it's better for you to come back here
I'm not leaving this place
Because when I was getting ready to go
I caught sight of the moon
And the moon hit the sea
And I just kept staying
