Ivan Lins
Me agarro nesse menino, que tem os olhos tranquilos
Os olhos mais lindos, a boca aguada de tamarindo
Me agarro nesse menino, que tem os dias sadios
Que é peixe no rio, que é bicho acuado sem meus carinhos
Me agarro nesse menino, que tem o campo cerrado
Um baio selado e fogoso esperando por meus domingos
Me agarro nesse menino, com cola, com visgo de figo
Que brinca comigo, enquanto meus filhos estão dormindo
Será que ele cresce?
Me faz pouco caso
E um dia me esquece?
Preciso desse menino, que tem na sua algibeira
Segredos e chaves, que abrem porteiras pros meus caminhos
Preciso desse menino, de sua água de mina
Que lava meus dias e os deixas quarando num sol a pino
Preciso desse menino, que tira ouro do milho
Da vida o destino, com seu canivete cor de alumínio
Preciso desse menino, que eu carrego aqui dentro
Sem ele eu perco todo encantamento por ter crescido
Será que ele cresce?
Me faz pouco caso
E um dia me esquece
I cling to this boy, who has calm eyes
The most beautiful eyes, the watery mouth of tamarind
I cling to this boy, who has healthy days
Which is a fish in the river, which is a cornered animal without my affection
I cling to this boy, who has a closed field
A sealed and fiery bay waiting for my Sundays
I cling to this boy, with glue, with fig mistletoe
Who plays with me while my children are sleeping
Does he grow?
I don't care
And one day he forgets me?
I need this boy, who has in his pocket
Secrets and keys, which open gates to my ways
I need this boy, his water from mine
That washes my days and leaves them lying in the high sun
I need this boy, who takes gold from corn
Gives life to fate, with its aluminum-colored pocketknife
I need this boy, who I carry inside
Without him I lose all the enchantment of having grown up
Does he grow?
I don't care
And one day I forget
