Lyrics of Amor Do Céu, Amor Do Mar - Milton Nascimento

Amor Do Céu, Amor Do Mar (original)

Quando sonhei Elis Regina
Um coro de anjos se fez escutar
Meu coração desamparado
Se encheu de muitas cores
Cobriu todo ar
Quando o cantar de Janaina
Me trouxe esperança de acreditar
Minha lembrança apazigou
E o mundo encantou
Uma era a voz daquela deusa chamava
E então me querendo levar
Senti que era muito cedo
Sem sobra de medo me jogo no mar
Outra juntou-se com os anjos num canto
De saude pra me ajudar
Eram dois anjos muita força sem medo
De amar
O mar de lá contra o de cá
Amor do céu amor do mar
Quando sonhei Elis Regina
Um coro de anjos se fez escutar
Meu coração desamparado
Se encheu de muitas cores
Cobriu todo ar
Quando o cantar de Janaina
Me trouxe esperança de acreditar
Minha lembrança apazigou
E o mundo encantou
O mar de lá contra o de cá
Amor do céu amor do mar

(translation)

When I dreamed Elis Regina
A choir of angels made itself heard
my helpless heart
Filled with many colors
covered all the air
When Janaina's singing
It brought me hope to believe
my memory soothed
And the world enchanted
One was the voice of that goddess calling
And then wanting to take me
I felt it was too soon
With no remaining fear I throw myself into the sea
Another joined with the angels in a corner
Health to help me
They were two angels, a lot of strength without fear
To love
The sea from there against the from here
Love from the sky love from the sea
When I dreamed Elis Regina
A choir of angels made itself heard
my helpless heart
Filled with many colors
covered all the air
When Janaina's singing
It brought me hope to believe
my memory soothed
And the world enchanted
The sea from there against the from here
Love from the sky love from the sea
