A Terra รฉ minha mรฃe
O mar รฉ o meu chรฃo
O verde รฉ a luz
Sorrindo em meu olhar
Pois eu digo
ร mesmo um sonho o Rio
Tudo serรก como deve ser
Quero estar com vocรช lรก
Eu garanto
ร um lugar diferente
A minha gente carrega uma cruz
Mas tem forรงa pra mudar
Strange taste of a tropical fruit
Romantic language of the Portuguese
Melody on a wooden flute
Samba floating in the summer breeze
Float on
ย
It's alright, you can stay asleep
You can close your eyes
You can trust the people of paradise
To call your keeper and to tender your goodbyes
Oh, what a night (oh, what a night)
Wonderful one in a million
Frozen fire Brazilian
Oh, holy southern cross
Later on
Take me way downtown in a tin can
I can't come down from the bandstand
I'm never thrown for such a loss
When they say
O lugar de onde eu vim
Brota no coraรงรฃo
O lugar onde eu nasci
Estรก no mundo e em mim
O lugar que a gente sonhar
Pode existir, existirรก
Vive em nรณs e viverรก
Enquanto houver canรงรฃo
Caught in the rays of the rising sun
On the run from the soldier's gun
Shouting out loud from the angry crowd
The mild, the wild and the hungry child
I'll tell you
It's more than a dream in Rio
I was there on the very day
Dรณi demais o coraรงรฃo
E era mais
Mais do que nossas vozes
Mais do que o nosso rosto
Mais do que a luz do olhar
ย
But it's more than the shining eye
(Mais do que a luz do olhar)
More than the steaming green
(Mais do que o verdejar)
More than the hidden hills
(Tudo o que nรฃo se viu)
More than the concrete Christ
(Mais do que o Redentor)
More than a distant land
(Mais do que a Terra mรฃe)
Over the shining sea
(Mais do que o cรฉu e o mar)
More than a hungry child
(A fome a nos doer)
More like another time
(O tempo a nos curtir)
Born of a million years
(Mais do que um milhรฃo)
More than a million years
(De anos pra sonhar)
