A Sul da América [English translation]

Warm Southern breezes

Over the waving of the seas...

I paint the sea in blue

And I feel its foam on my feet.

You're always far away from me

Even when you're here.

Whenever you look at me like that

I exist only for you...

I've lost my own self!

[Chorus:]

To South America

The day I found you!

In the kiss that I gave you

Life never ended.

To South America,

Now I don't know how to go back:

I don't know how to live peacefully anymore

Without the certainty of you, my love!

I don't know who I am anymore...

Sweet rumour of the sea,

Sweet scent of the warm soil

As someone is singing

A song full of sadness...

You're always close to me

Even if you're not here.

There isn't a beginning and there is no end:

I exist only for you...

I've lost my own self!

[Chorus:]

To South America

The day I found you!

In the kiss that I gave you

Life never ended.

To South America,

Now I don't know how to go back:

I don't know how to live peacefully anymore

Without the certainty of you, my love!

I don't know who I am anymore...!
