Eu e Água
Caetano Veloso
Me and Water
The water ruffled by the wind
Water and its whisper
Water and its roar
Water and its silence
The water told me many secrets
Kept my secrets
Remade my drawings
Brought and took away my fears
The great mother saw me in a room full of water
In a huge, beautiful room full of water
And I never drowned
The total sea and I inside the eternal womb
And the voice of my father, the voice of many waters
Then the river passes
Me and water, me and water
I
Waterfall, lake, wave, drop
Light rain, fountain, snow, sea
The life that is given to me
Me and water
Water washes away the world's ills
And washes my soul
