Ela Me Deixou

Olinda rose in gold
When she came to this place
Life! And peace reigned
Gentle then

What was little
Multiplied until enough
In the river put fresh water
The salt in the sea

She left me gentle
Life was beautiful
When she left
She left longing

She left me longing
My life
When she appeared
Here it became gentle

On the horizon line
Evaporated, no sign
Disappeared from the screen
The color of the image

The day turned into night
From the shadow emerged a storm
Covered the whole earth
In tears

She left me gentle
Life was beautiful
When she left
She left longing

She left me longing
My life
When she appeared
Here it became gentle

The lighthouse on the hill
No longer lights up
And on the pier
There are no shells or corals
And the sea that has no waves
