Aos Nossos Filhos

Forgive the sour facePerdoem a cara amarrada
Forgive the lack of hugsPerdoem a falta de abraço
Forgive the lack of spacePerdoem a falta de espaço
The days were like thatOs dias eram assim

Forgive for so many dangersPerdoem por tantos perigos
Forgive the lack of shelterPerdoem a falta de abrigo
Forgive the lack of friendsPerdoem a falta de amigos
The days were like thatOs dias eram assim

Forgive the lack of leavesPerdoem a falta de folhas
Forgive the lack of airPerdoem a falta de ar
Forgive the lack of choicePerdoem a falta de escolha
The days were like thatOs dias eram assim

And when they clean upE quando passarem a limpo
And when they cut the tiesE quando cortarem os laços
And when they loosen the beltsE quando soltarem os cintos
Have a blast for meFaçam a festa por mim

When they let go of the grudgeQuando largarem a mágoa
When they cleanse the soulQuando lavarem a alma
When they wash the waterQuando lavarem a água
Wash the eyes for meLavem os olhos por mim

When the flowers bloomQuando brotarem as flores
When the forests growQuando crescerem as matas
When they harvest the fruitsQuando colherem os frutos
Tell me the tasteDigam o gosto pra mim
