Canção do Amigo

Friend's Song
Loves are like flowers, fleeting charms
In arrivals and departures, but I tell you, friend is for a lifetime
Every love demands its price, shines but shatters
Kisses and leaves scars, yet the happy hours the friend brings with grace
Friendship, friendship, is a divine gift of peace
It's poetry and guitar singing the same song with two equal voices
They are life's diamonds that shine in people's eyes
A friend is forever, a friend is forever
It's a gnome, it's a fairy, it's our guardian angel
The mother, the father, the child, the eternal blessed hand always extended
To help
Even when God seems absent, the friend is still there
For if we stumble, the friend lends a shoulder and cries
Together with us
Friendship, friendship, is a divine gift of peace
It's poetry and guitar singing the same song with two equal voices
They are life's diamonds that shine in people's eyes
A friend is forever, a friend is forever
