Coração de Todo Mundo
Oswaldo Montenegro
Heart of Everyone
Walking around
Running around the world
Showcase of the world
Places at hand
Go where your eyes go
Following the secret words of your heart
Going down the rivers of life
Taking avenues, stairs
Slopes, subways
Knowing every corner
In the waters of the narrow lines of a ferry-boat
Heart of a whole world
A foreign and so familiar hug
Until finding each other
Wearing Bali prints
The jewels of Italy
And the shawl of the girls from Avis
Feeling in the air the cheap perfume
Of the dark alleys of Old Paris
Taking a junk boat
A wicker basket
Leaving Shanghai forever
Taking the seas of Spain
"I don't believe in witches
But that they exist, they do"
Heart of a whole world
A foreign and so familiar hug
Until finding each other
