Other Dreams

Chico Buarque

Outros Sonhos

Sonhei que o fogo gelou
Sonhei que a neve fervia
Sonhei que ela corava
Quando me via
Sonhei que ao meio-dia
Havia intenso luar
E o povo se embevecia
Se empetecava João
Se emperiquitava Maria
Doentes do coração
Dançavam na enfermaria
E a beleza não fenecia

Belo e sereno era o som
Que lá no morro se ouvia
Eu sei que o sonho era bom
Porque ela sorria
Até quando chovia
Guris inertes no chão
Falavam de astronomia
E me jurava o diabo
Que Deus existia
De mão em mão o ladrão
Relógios distribuía
E a polícia já não batia

De noite raiava o sol
Que todo mundo aplaudia
Maconha só se comprava
Na tabacaria
Drogas na drogaria
Um passarinho espanhol
Cantava esta melodia
E com sotaque esta letra
De sua autoria
Sonhei que o fogo gelou
Sonhei que a neve fervia
E por sonhar o impossível, ai
Sonhei que tu me querias

Soñé que el fuego heló
Soñé que la nieve ardía
Y por soñar lo imposible, ay, ay
Soñé que tú me querías

Other Dreams

I dreamed that the fire froze
I dreamed that the snow was boiling
I dreamed that she blushed
When she saw me
I dreamed that at noon
There was intense moonlight
And the people were enchanted
João was getting fancy
Maria was getting dolled up
Heart patients
Were dancing in the infirmary
And beauty did not fade

Beautiful and serene was the sound
That could be heard on the hill
I know the dream was good
Because she was smiling
Even when it rained
Motionless kids on the ground
Talked about astronomy
And the devil swore to me
That God existed
Thief by thief, watches
Were being handed out
And the police no longer struck

At night, the sun rose
That everyone applauded
Marijuana was only bought
At the tobacco shop
Drugs at the pharmacy
A Spanish bird
Sang this melody
And with an accent, this letter
Of his own authorship
I dreamed that the fire froze
I dreamed that the snow was boiling
And for dreaming the impossible, oh
I dreamed that you wanted me

I dreamed that the fire froze
I dreamed that the snow was boiling
And for dreaming the impossible, oh, oh
I dreamed that you wanted me
