Amigo é Casa (feat. Simone)

Friend is Home (feat. Simone)

Friend is like a house that is built slowly
and with patience to last forever
But it takes a lot of bricks and earth
to prepare plaster, build latches
To use the wisdom of a John-of-clay
who builds his residence with art
the foundation must be very resistant
able to protect from rains and winds
And there must be a lot of jequitibá
and jatobá beams
fertilize the garden and plant many flower beds of resedás
a pergola should not be missing to remember past times
as the white hairs start to appear
Like weeds in the field
hardly worth weeding
and you have to see the manacá feet
full of sabiás
knowing that the nightingales will bring delights
a joy to imagine!
for the ridge party, don't miss the guitars!
plenty of corn burning in the bonfire
and plenty of ginger hot wine
warming hearts
The house is friendship built slowly
and that we want with all the trimmings
With latticework made of rare material
and high parapets, with a very wide gate
so you can enter smiling
at uncertain times
without making a fuss, without causing trouble
A true friend, when they want to be present
becomes almost transparent without being noticed
A friend is to stay, to arrive, to get close,
to hug, to kiss, to praise, to bless
A friend is welcomed, sheltered, and warmed
and offered a place to sleep and eat
A true friend doesn't pull the rug
offers us the best they have and what they don't
when they don't have, they pretend they do,
do what they can, and share their heart like bread.
