Do Pó Ao Pó

Do you want to know? What a beautiful planet!
Our home, beautiful temple or castle
Such a simple gift
That says: Cultivate me, for you will be happy
Make love to me
Accept my shelter
I will provide sustenance
Sacred food
Nourish yourself, that one day
You will be food
And to dust you will return!

It's the Earth like a ballerina
All fragile, it keeps spinning
Enchanting and the Sun moving
And cries, renews itself and smiles
The Sun warming me
Just looked at me
Did you see my love
Healed my pain
I, who was dark and cold
I'm not so empty anymore
My friend, how grateful I am!

Powerful and prosperous queen
By showing off your precious adornments
Your mysterious charms
Treasures for all living
Water, fire and air
Green forests
To all beings
In the four seasons
Shine the Sun, the king star
And the Moon will wait for you
In eclipses you will love each other

On this stage of all stories
Impressions that stick in memories
Of misfortunes like glories
And I know what's coming
Do whatever it takes
Everything is predicted
Show your courage
Understand my language
Remember that everything speaks
And the Earth does not remain silent
May it not be too late!

I am the Earth and everything is interconnected
In the universe, of the simplest
To the most complex
Influences and their reflections
Life and its interpretations
The Earth embraces
All your children
From the cradle and their lives
To the grave and their souls
Nourish yourself, that one day
You will be food
And to dust you will return
