Translation of the song lyrics A Tempestade - Madredeus

A Tempestade (original)

Corre a menina à beira do mar
Corre, corre, pela praia fora
Que belo dia que está não está
E o primeiro a chegar não perde
Andam as ondas a rebentar
E o relógio a marcar horas
A sombra é quente, e quase não há
E o sol a brilhar já ferve
Corre a menina à beira do mar
Corre enquanto a gaivota voa
Vem o menino para a apanhar
E a menina sentindo foge
Anda o barquinho a navegar
Vem do Porto para Lisboa
Foge a menina da beira mar
Foge logo quando a maré sobe
Andam a brincar
Na praia do mar
As ondas do mar
Andam a rebentar
Na praia do mar
Andam a brincar
As ondas do mar
Andam a rebentar
As ondas do mar
Andam a rebentar
E é tão bonita a onda que vem
Como a outra que vejo ao fundo
A espuma branca que cada tem
É a vida de todo o mundo

(translation)

The girl runs by the sea
Run, run, down the beach
What a beautiful day it's not
And the first to arrive doesn't lose
The waves are breaking
And the clock to mark the hours
The shadow is warm, and there is almost no
And the sun shining is already boiling
The girl runs by the sea
Run while the seagull flies
The boy comes to pick her up
And the girl feeling runs away
Take the boat to navigate
Coming from Porto to Lisbon
The seaside girl flees
Run away soon when the tide rises
They're playing
On the sea beach
The sea waves
They're busting
On the sea beach
They're playing
The sea waves
They're busting
The sea waves
They're busting
And it's so beautiful the wave that comes
Like the other one I see in the background
The white foam that each has
It's the life of the whole world
