A Paz

Peace flooded my heart
Suddenly filled me with calm
Like the wind from a typhoon
Lifted my feet off the ground
Where I won't bury myself anymore

Peace turned the sea of revolution
Into my destiny
Peace like that big explosion
Of a bomb over Japan
Gave birth to a Japan of peace

I thought of me
I thought of you
I cried for us
What a contradiction
Only war makes our love in peace

I came
I ended up by the dock
Where the road came to an end
Where the evening sky is lilac
Where the sea crashes in me
The lament of so many sighs

I thought of me
I thought of you
I cried for us
What a contradiction
Only war makes
Our love in peace

I came
I ended up by the dock
Where the road came to an end
Where the evening sky is lilac
Where the sea crashes in me
The lament of so many sighs

Peace!
Flooded my heart!
Peace!
Turned the sea of revolution!
