Maria Betânia

Maria Bethânia, you are to me the lady of the mill
In dreams I see you, Maria Bethânia, you are all I have
How much sadness I feel in my chest
Just thinking that my dream is shattered

Maria Bethânia, do you still remember that Saint John's Day
My words fell deep into your heart
You looked at me with emotion
And unintentionally I put my hand in yours

Maria Bethânia, you miss everything, I know well
But I also miss the kiss I never gave you
A kiss that lives splendidly
On my lips to increase my pain

Maria Bethânia, I never thought everything would end like this
Maria Bethânia, by God I ask you to have mercy on me
Today I confess with regret
That I didn't know or understand love
