Serenata do Adeus
Vinicius de Moraes
Farewell Serenade
Oh, the moon that appeared in the sky
Is not the same that saw you
Born from my arms
Night falls upon our love
And now all that remains of love
Is one word: Goodbye
Oh, the desire to stay
But having to leave
Oh, to love is to slowly die throughout life
It's to reflect in the tear
A brief moment
Of a pure star, whose light has died
Ah, woman, shining star
Leaves, but before leaving
Rip my heart apart
Dig your claws into my chest in pain
And let all love
All disillusionment flow in blood
Oh, the desire to stay
But having to leave
Oh, to love is to slowly die throughout life
It's to reflect in the tear
A brief moment
Of a pure star
Whose light has died
In a dark night
Sad like me
