Beloved Homeland (feat. Carlinhos Brown & Rodrigo Lombardi)

Pátria Amada (part. Carlinhos Brown e Rodrigo Lombardi)

The white dust that enchants the heavensO pó branco que o céu inebria
Holds the purity of kings and queensTem a pureza de reis e rainhas
But the humble commoner may never touchMas o pobre plebeu jamais pode tocar
Despite paying with his own lifebloodApesar de pagar com seu sangue
The coal that was transformed into a diamondO carvão que virou diamante
To adorn the neck of the king's ladyPra senhora do rei o pescoço enfeitar

Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil

The ashen sky, as if of burnt paper madeO céu cinza feito de papel queimado
From the curtain's veil, draws the phantoms of the pastTraz da cortina os fantasmas do passado
A state without law, justice reserved for kingsEstado sem lei, justiça pra reis
The elder in the square, hanging from the gallowsO ancião na praça enforcado
No right was held within the heartNenhum direito estava no peito
All to guarantee the suitcase, brimming with moneyPra garantir a mala cheia de dinheiro
All to guarantee the suitcase, brimming with moneyPra garantir a mala cheia de dinheiro

Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil

Have you ever paused to wonder, my dear friendJá parou pra pensar meu chegado
Who truly benefits from tearing this land in two?A quem interessa dividir o país em dois lados?
'Tis the age-old rhetoric of warÉ aquela velha retórica da guerra
To divide, to weaken, to strike, and all is lostDividir, enfraquecer, atacar e já era
How many more must perish?Quantos mais terão que morrer?
How many more, before our hearts can understandQuantos mais pra gente entender
That the foe, my brother, is neither you nor I!Que o inimigo parceiro, não sou eu e nem você!
The true enemyO verdadeiro inimigo
Lies hidden behind the castle's towering wallsSe esconde atrás das muralhas do castelo

Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
Oh my beloved homeland, Brazil, BrazilÔ Pátria amada, Brasil, Brasil
