O Bôto
Tom Jobim
The Boto
On the inside beach there is sand
On the outside beach there is the sea
A boto married to a mermaid
Sails on a river through the sea
The body of an animal washed up on the beach
And the lost soul wants to return
Crab talks to stingray
Marking the journey through the air
Just yesterday I came from Pilar
Just yesterday I came from Pilar
I'm already feeling like going there
Yesterday I came from Pilar
Yesterday I came from Pilar
Wanting to go there
On the deserted island the sun fades
From the top of the hill you can see the sea
Parrot argues with parakeet
If man was made to fly
Cristina, Cristina
Cristina, Cristina
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Come here
Inhambu sang in the forest
And the old jereba took to the air
Frog wanting to join the party
Heavy guitar to fly
Still yesterday etc...
Yesterday I came etc...
Camiranga vulture master of the wind
Vulture hunter master of the air
Urutau singing in a lament
To sail the full moon
Still yesterday etc...
Yesterday I came etc...
ah - ah
In the black cove seen in a dream
A sailboat sleeps on the sea
Reflected in the water mirror
A sailboat sails through the air
