Diamante Verdadeiro

Maria Bethânia Maria Bethânia

True Diamond

In this whole universe of sparkles and bubbles
Lots of kisses, lots of corks
Shots in the necks of the Chandon
It doesn't fit a third of my boy's crib
You call yourself grand-fine and I tune
As much as your tone is out of tune

Well frankly my love
My environment is what suddenly appears
Wherever I arrive, just because I arrive
As a sovereign person in this world
I go deep into existence
And for our coexistence
You also have to know how to invent yourself

For every touch of what you do and say
It just makes New York something like Paris
While I invent and uninvent fashion
My clothes, my wheel
I play between what should be and what should not be

And I jump over the champagne bubbles you drink
And I dance from the top of your snow mountain
I am first, I am lighter, I am more me
Just as it is true
The diamond you gave me

For every touch of what you do and say
It just makes New York something like Paris
While I invent and uninvent fashion
My clothes, my wheel
I play between what should be and what should not be

And I jump over the bubbles of the champagne you drink
And I dance from the top of your snow mountain
I am first, I am lighter, I am more me
Just as it is true
The diamond you gave me
