| Talvez digas um dia o que me queres
| Maybe one day you'll tell me what you want
|
| Talvez não queiras afinal dizê-lo
| Maybe you don't want to say it after all
|
| Talvez passes a mão no meu cabelo
| Maybe you run your hand through my hair
|
| Talvez não pense em ti talvez me esperes
| Maybe I don't think about you, maybe you wait for me
|
| Talvez, sendo isto assim, fosse melhor
| Perhaps, this being so, it would be better
|
| Falhar-se o nosso encontro por um triz
| Missing our meeting by a hair's breadth
|
| Talvez não me afagasses como eu quis
| Maybe you wouldn't caress me like I wanted
|
| Talvez não nos soubéssemos de cor
| Maybe we didn't know each other by heart
|
| Mas não sei bem, respostas não mas dês
| But I don't know well, no answers but give
|
| Vivo só de murmúrios repetidos
| I live only on repeated murmurs
|
| De enganos de alma e fome dos sentidos
| From deceptions of soul and hunger of the senses
|
| Talvez seja cruel, talvez, talvez
| Maybe it's cruel, maybe, maybe
|
| Se nada dás, porém, nada te dou
| If you give nothing, however, I give you nothing
|
| Neste vaivém que sempre nos sustenta
| In this coming and going that always sustains us
|
| E se a própria saudade nos inventa
| And if the nostalgia itself invents us
|
| Não sei talvez quem és mas sei quem sou
| I don't know maybe who you are but I know who I am
|
| Se nada dás, porém, nada te dou
| If you give nothing, however, I give you nothing
|
| Neste vaivém que sempre nos sustenta
| In this coming and going that always sustains us
|
| E se a própria saudade nos inventa
| And if the nostalgia itself invents us
|
| Não sei talvez quem és mas sei quem sou | I don't know maybe who you are but I know who I am |
