Sem Mandamentos

Today I want the street full of genuine smiles
Of serene faces, of loose words
I want the whole street looking crazy
With people shouting and embracing the Sun

Today I want to see the child's ball free
I want to see all dreams in the windows
I want to see you walking around

Today I will apologize for what I didn't say
I even forgive what you said
I want to see my heart in your smile
And in the eye of the evening, the first light

Today I want the bohemians to shout even louder
I want a carnival in the traffic jam
And let ten thousand stars streak the sky
Seeking your home at dawn

Today I will make noise through the night
Tear the dark night like a lantern
I will serenade on your sidewalk
I will wreak havoc on your heart

Today I want the poets to dance through the street
To write music without pretension
I want the horns to play the recorder
And may the force of imagination triumph

I will serenade on your sidewalk
I will wreak havoc on your heart
Today I want the poets to dance through the street
To write music without pretension
I want the horns to play the recorder
And may the force
Of imagination triumph
