Você Também é Responsável

You are also responsible
Authors: Dom and Ravel

I come from fields, suburbs, and villages,
Dreaming and singing, crying in lines,
Following the current without participating,
I lack the seed of reading and counting

I am Brazilian, longing for a place,
I beg you to stop, to listen to my singing

You are also responsible,
So teach me how to write,
I have my trainable hand,
I feel the thirst for knowledge

I come from fields, so rich, so beautiful,
Singing and calling, everyone is welcome
The nation deserves a greater dimension,
Let's march into the fight, with a pencil in hand

I am Brazilian, longing for a place,
I beg you to stop, to listen to my singing
