Mil Janelas(original) |
| Mandei rasgar mil janelas na alma |
| Para poder ver o mar de noite e dia; |
| Mas andam sempre fechadas |
| Porque os olhos me cegavam |
| De cada vez que as abria |
| De luto pelos meus olhos |
| Também elas andam cegas |
| Eram feitas p’ra olhar |
| Trago agora mil janelas |
| Inútilmente rasgadas na alma |
| E não vejo o mar |
| Abertas, cega-me a luz |
| Fechadas, falta-me o ar |
| De que servem mil janelas |
| Se não posso respirar |
| De que servem mil janelas |
| Se não posso ver o mar |
| Há-de haver uma janela |
| Que eu possa abrir sem cegar |
| (translation) |
| I ordered a thousand windows to be ripped out of my soul |
| To be able to see the sea at night and day; |
| But they are always closed |
| Because my eyes were blinding me |
| Every time I opened them |
| Mourning for my eyes |
| They too are blind |
| were made to look |
| I bring now a thousand windows |
| Uselessly torn in the soul |
| And I don't see the sea |
| Open, the light blinds me |
| Closed, I lack the air |
| What are a thousand windows for |
| if i can't breathe |
| What are a thousand windows for |
| If I can't see the sea |
| There must be a window |
| That I can open without blinding |
