Queixa
Caetano Veloso
Complaint
A love so delicate
You take and disregard
Shouldn't have awakened
Kneel and don't pray
Of this thing that instills fear
Because of its greatness
I'm not the only one to blame
I'm sure of that
Princess, surprise, you devastated me
Serpent, doesn't even feel that poisoned me
Lady, and now, tell me where I'm going
Lady, serpent, princess
A love so violent
When it turns into bitterness
It's the opposite of a feeling
Ocean without water
Waves, desires for revenge
In this unnaturalness
They hit hard without hope
Against your hardness
Princess, surprise, you devastated me
Serpent, doesn't even feel that poisoned me
Lady, and now, tell me where I'm going
Lady, serpent, princess
A love so delicate
No man would give
Maybe it was a sin
To bet on joy
You think I have everything
And leave me empty
But God doesn't want me to stay silent
And I shout this complaint to you
Princess, surprise, you devastated me
Serpent, doesn't even feel that poisoned me
Lady, and now, tell me where I'm going
Friend, tell me...
