Pedaço de Chão

Piece of Ground

Pedaço de Chão

When I married you, back in our corner of the worldQuando eu casei com você, lá pras bandas do nosso rincão
So much that we dreamed of, having a home, a piece of groundTanto que a gente sonhou, ter um lar, um pedaço de chão
From sunup to sundown I worked, built a mud and thatch hutDe sol a sol trabalhei, fiz um rancho de barro e taboão
And in the evening, played on the ground with the childrenE de noitinha, com as crianças brincava no chão

Home is people united, with whom God comes to dwell on earthLar são pessoas unidas, com quem na terra Deus vem pra morar
Home is forgiveness and harmony, where tears don't stayLar é perdão e harmonia, onde o choro não vem pra ficar
Home is people, home is not a placeLar são pessoas, lar não é um lugar

Soon the boys grew up, our small hut became crampedLogo os meninos cresceram, nosso rancho pequeno ficou
I went to work in the city, suddenly we became richFui trabalhar na cidade, de repente a gente enricou
I bought a beautiful house, my life was just workCasa bonita eu comprei, minha vida era só trabalhar
I had things, but now I didn't have my homeEu tinha coisas, mas agora não tinha meu lar

I would give everything back, to have my home backTudo eu daria de volta, pra de volta ter o meu lar
