Lyrics

We sailed up a river wide as a sea And slept on the banks On the leaves of a banyan tree And all of these spirit voices rule the night Some stories are magical, meant to be sung Songs from the mouth of the river When the world was young And all of these spirit voices rule the night By moon We walk To the brujo's door Along a path of river stone Women with their nursing children Seated on the floor We join the fevers And the broken bones Candlelight flickers Falcon calls A lime-green lizard scuttles down the cabin wall And all of these spirit voices Sing rainwater, sea water River water, holy water Wrap this child in mercy heal her Heaven's only daughter All of these spirit voices rule the night My hands were numb My feet were lead I drank a cup of herbal brew Then the sweetness in the air Combined with the lightness in my head And I heard the jungle breathing in the bamboo Saudaรงรตes! Dรก licenรงa, um momento Eu te lembro que amanhรฃ Serรก tudo ou serรก nada Depende, coraรงรฃo Serรก breve ou serรก grande Depende da paixรฃo Serรก sujo, serรก sonho Cuidado, coraรงรฃo Serรก รบtil, serรก tarde Se esmera, coraรงรฃo E confia na forรงa do amanhรฃ Lord of the earthquake My trembling bed The spider resumes the rhythm Of his golden thread And all of these spirit voices rule the night And all of these spirit voices rule the night And all of these spirit voices.
