Eu Me Lembro

I remember the comfort that was my mother's lap
I remember the prayer asking to multiply
The food so hard-earned and so little
I remember, my mother would hide to cry.

I remember the struggle that was my father's life
I remember, at dawn I hear steps, he got up
So suffering and so sick but he has to fight
I remember how many times I cried for him to take me
I remember

I remember the toys I received as a child
I remember the punishments and beatings out of love
So much effort and sacrifice just for me to study
I remember my father would say: Son
The sorrows I went through, you won't go through.
I remember

Time passed, evil deceived me and I was sadness
I was disappointment, I hurt the heart of those who loved me so much
And at the moment when I was most alone
On a road full of mud and thorns
I humbled myself, repented and then returned.

I remember
I remember
My mother with the water can on her head
I remember
My father leaving the hospital straight to work.
I remember
