Lyrics of Depois Dos Temporais - Ivan Lins, Cia das Cordas

Depois Dos Temporais (original)

Sempre viveram no mesmo barco
Foram farinha do mesmo saco
Da mesma marinha, da mesma rainha
Sob a mesma bandeira
Tremulando no mastro
E assim foram seguindo os astros
Cortaram as amarras e os nós
Deixando pra trás o porto e o cais
Berrando até perder a voz
Em busca do imenso,
Do silêncio mais intenso
Que está depois dos temporais
E assim foram sempre em frente
Fazendo amor pelos sete mares
Inchando a água de alga e peixe
Seguindo os ventos
As marés e as correntes
O caminho dos golfinhos
A trilha das baleias
E não havia arrecifes
Nem bancos de areia
Nem temores, nem mais dores
Não havia cansaço
Só havia, só havia azul e espaço

(translation)

They always lived in the same boat
They were flour from the same bag
From the same navy, from the same queen
Under the same flag
Fluttering on the mast
And so they followed the stars
They cut the ties and the knots
Leaving the port and the pier behind
Screaming until I lose my voice
In search of the immense,
Of more intense silence
What is after the storms
And that's how they always went ahead
Making love across the seven seas
Swelling seaweed and fish water
following the winds
The tides and the currents
The path of the dolphins
The Whale Trail
And there were no reefs
Neither sandbanks
No more fears, no more pains
there was no fatigue
There was only, there was only blue and space
