Quando a Gira Girou
Zeca Pagodinho
When the Wheel Turned
The sky suddenly clouded over
And the wind stirred the waves of the sea
And what the storm took away
Was all that could be saved
Only God knows how much was toiled
It was hard, but then came the calm
And now is the time to be thankful
Because when everything was lost
And luck disappeared
Below God, only you remained
When the wheel turned
No one could bear it
Only you stayed
You didn't abandon me
When the wind stopped
And the water receded
I had the certainty of your love
When everything seems lost
It's at that moment that you see
Who is a partner, who is a good friend
Who is with you, who is ready to run
Your hand pulled me out of the abyss
Your axé prevented my end
Taught me what companionship is
And also to like those who like me
When the wheel turned
No one could bear it
Only you stayed
You didn't abandon me
When the wind stopped
And the water receded
I had the certainty of your love
When the wheel turned
No one could bear it
Only you stayed
You didn't abandon me
When the wind stopped
And the water receded
I had the certainty of your love
When everything seems lost
It's at that moment that you see
Who is a partner, who is a good friend
Who is with you, who is ready to run
Your hand pulled me out of the abyss
Your axé prevented my end
Taught me what companionship is
And also to like those who like me
When the wheel turned
No one could bear it
Only you stayed
You didn't abandon me
When the wind stopped
And the water receded
I had the certainty of your love
In the moment we least expect
At the end of the tunnel, a light appears
The light of a sincere friendship
To help carry our cross
It was God who put you in my path
At the right time, to help me
I wouldn't have gotten anywhere alone
If it weren't for you
When the wheel turned
No one could bear it
Only you stayed
You didn't abandon me
When the wind stopped
And the water receded
I had the certainty of your love
The sky suddenly clouded over
And the wind stirred the waves of the sea
And what the storm took away
Was all that could be saved
Only God knows how much was toiled
It was hard, but then came the calm
And now is the time to be thankful
Because when everything was lost
And luck disappeared
Below God, only you remained
When the wheel turned
No one could bear it
Only you stayed
You didn't abandon me
When the wind stopped
And the water receded
I had the certainty of your love
In the moment we least expect
At the end of the tunnel, a light appears
The light of a sincere friendship
To help carry our cross

If it weren't for you

When the wheel turned
No one could bear it
Only you stayed
You didn't abandon me
When the wind stopped
And the water receded
I had the certainty of your love
