September

Setembro

September fell awaySetembro desfolhou-se
In a slow agonyNuma agonia lenta
With its trunk-like suitCom o seu fato de troncos
Between the fingers of the windEntre os dedos do vento
Scattered shades of redTons vermelhos dispersos
In the calm of sunsetsNa calma dos poentes
They were lost lipsEram lábios perdidos
That hinted at kissesQue sugeriam beijos

I was waiting for SeptemberEu esperava Setembro
To see you againPara voltar a ver-te
To give you backPara voltar a dar-te
The dreams that were oursOs sonhos que eram nossos
Dressed in hopeVestida de esperança
And a lovesick soulE de alma enamorada
I was waiting for SeptemberEu esperava Setembro
To see you againPara voltar a ver-te

September arrivedSetembro chegou
Wearing wildflowersVestindo flores silvestres
With ripe fruitsCom as frutas maduras
In its bare, rugged armsNos braços nus agrestes

On every pathPor todos os caminhos
I searched for you without seeing youTe procurei sem ver-te
My wandering stepsOs meus passos errantes
On the fragrant earthNa terra perfumada
I was waiting for SeptemberEu esperava Setembro
To see you againPara voltar a ver-te
But I searched so muchMas tanto procurei
That I found myself aloneQue dei por mim sozinha

September fell awaySetembro desfolhou-se
In the silence of the afternoonsNo silêncio das tardes
Between the fingers of the windEntre os dedos do vento
My love undoneO meu amor desfeito
