Tempo de Amor (Samba do Veloso)
Vinicius de Moraes
Time of Love (Veloso's Samba)
Ah, it would be much better
To be able to live in peace
Without having to suffer
Without having to cry
Without having to desire
Without having to give
But you have to suffer
But you have to cry
But you have to desire
To be able to love
Ah, deceitful world
Peace no longer means love
Ah, there is nothing sadder than having peace
And regretting it, and conforming
And protecting oneself from one more love
The time of love
Is the time of pain
The time of peace
Does not make or undo
Ah, may it not be mine
The world where love died
