Balada De Gisberta

Maria Bethânia Maria Bethânia

Ballad of Gisberta

I lost my name
Today you can call me yours
I danced in palaces
Today I dance in the street

I dressed in dreams
Today I wear the road's edges
What's the use of going back
When you're turning back to nothing

I don't know if an Angel calls me
I don't know about the thousand men in bed
And heaven can't wait

I don't know if the night takes me
I don't hear my cry in the darkness
The end wants to find me

I sambaed on the avenue
In the dark, I was a standard-bearer
The lights went out
It's the future that leaves

I wrote the desire
Hearts I've already forgotten
With silks I killed
And with irons I died

I don't know if an Angel calls me
I don't know about the thousand men in bed
And heaven can't wait

I don't know if the night takes me
I don't hear my cry in the darkness
And the end wants to find me

I brought little
I take even less
The distance to the bottom is so small
At the bottom, it's so small
The fall

And love is so far
Love is so far
Love is so far
Love is so far
