Meu Limão de Amargura

My love, my love
My body in motion
My voice searching
For your own lament

My bitter lemon
My dagger growing
We stopped time
We don’t know how to die

And we were born, we were born
From our sadness

My love, my love
My gray bird
Crying for the distance
Of our separation

My love, my love
My knot of suffering
My mill of tenderness
My ship of torment

This sea has no cure
This sky has no air
We stopped the wind
We don’t know how to swim

And we die, we die
Slowly, slowly
