Matador De Passarinho

Here we have the johnny-barro
Goldfinch, linnet
Woodpecker and hummingbird
Here we have the canary
Bellbird, blackbird
Chestnut-bellied seed-finch and great kiskadee
Here we have so many swallows
Rufous-collared sparrow, southern lapwing
Nightingale and ruddy quail
That serve as target practice
To ward off boredom
And the emptiness of existence

House sparrow, when you fly
House sparrow, you look like
A small plane in the air
House sparrow, when you sing
I remember my childhood
Holiday in Paquetá
House sparrow, so skittish
House sparrow, you peck
Some cornmeal grains
House sparrow, forgive me
But I feel a desire
I can't hold back

Hummingbird, from flower to flower
Hummingbird, you are the king
Hummingbird, I wish you well
Hummingbird, if you only knew
Hummingbird, oh! If I could
I would kiss flowers too
Hummingbird, you go carrying
In a pink cloud
Pollen grains for whom?
Hummingbird, you are so beautiful
But your time has come
You won't kiss anyone else
