Brésilien [English translation]

Brazilian, my brother in arms

On the obstacle course of the beating heart

You who laugh with your tears

O you who cry with your teeth

Come and visit the West

Here, singers with charm

Have been dead a very long time

Brazilian, my brother in arms

On the obstacle course of the beating heart

You who laugh with your tears

Impearling your lashes with teeth

Come ashore with your Brazil

Brazilian, love is rough

Here, the grass makes away with the grain

You're going to play us an étude

A sweet étude of sorrow

You're going to touch us a little

Your guitar plenitude

Free us from our brakes

Brazilian, love is rough

Here the grass makes away with the grain

Your guitar plenitude

Caress its navel

Come ashore with your Brazil

Brazilian, the night is beautiful

Beneath its great carnival mask

Your music entwines me

Like an umbilical cord

To its belly of crystal

Whose pistil sparkles only

For my oral happiness

Brazilian the night is beautiful

Beneath its great carnival mask

Your music entwines me

Like a son to your hail

Come ashore with your Brazil

Come ashore with your Brazil
