Lampedusa

Lampedusa

Lampedusa

Wind on the sailVento no pano
Hand on the oar, salt eating away at the metalMão sobre o remo sal corroendo o metal
Sun fading my sightSol desbotando a visão

Breath, song, screamSopro, canto, grito
Endless roar of no oneUrro interminável de ninguém
Hide me, cover meMe esconde, me cobre
Take me and bring me back from beyondLeva-me e devolve-me do além

Go, body that tremblesVai, corpo que treme
Oh, curves of the helmAi, curvas do leme

We tie up the endsNós amarrando os finais
Light soaking the deckLuz encharcando o convés

Gentle, deep, coldManso, fundo, frio
Heading towards the highest reefsRumo aos altíssimos corais
Bring my dream, worldTraz meu sonho, mundo
Endless mother of this peaceMãe inesgotável dessa paz

How many eyes watch you, and you slipQuantos olhos te vigiam, e escorres
From the hands that try to grab youDas mãos que tentam te agarrar
You have no door or windowNão tens porta nem janela
With which they can shut you inCom que te possam fechar

Oh sea, oh open seaÓ mar, ó mar aberto
Sail, sail, on the open seaNavegar, navegar, no mar aberto
