Mar E Lua - Chico Buarque

Amaram

O amor urgente

As bocas salgadas

Pela maresia

As costas lenhadas

Pela tempestade

Naquela cidade

Distante do mar

Amaram

O amor serenado

Das noturnas praias

Levantavam as saias

E se enluaravam

De felicidade

Naquela cidade

Que não tem luar

Amavam

O amor proibido

Pois hoje é sabido

— Todo mundo conta

Que uma andava tonta

Grávida de lua

E outra andava nua

À vida de mar

E foram

Ficando marcadas

Ouvindo risadas

Sentindo arrepios

Olhando pro rio

Tão cheio de lua

E que continua

Correndo pro mar

E foram

Correnteza abaixo

Rolando no leito

Engolindo água

Boiando com as algas

Arrastando folhas

Carregando flores

E a se desmanchar

E foram

Virando peixes

Virando conchas

Virando seixos

Virando areia

Prateada areia

Com lua cheia

E à beira-mar

loved

urgent love

The salty mouths

by the sea air

The wooded back

by the storm

In that city

Far from the sea

loved

The serene love

from the night beaches

Lifted up their skirts

And if they mooned

Of happiness

In that city

that has no moonlight

They loved

The forbidden love

For today it is known

— Everyone counts

that one was dizzy

pregnant with the moon

And another one was naked

To sea life

E were

getting marked

hearing laughter

feeling chills

looking at the river

So full of the moon

And that continues

running to the sea

E were

downstream

rolling in bed

swallowing water

Floating with the algae

dragging leaves

carrying flowers

And to fall apart

E were

turning fish

turning shells

turning pebbles

turning to sand

silver sand

with full moon

and by the sea
