Dança da Solidão [English translation]

Loneliness is a lava, covering everything

Bitterness in my mouth

Smiles its leaden teeth.

Loneliness a word carved into my heart

Resigned and mute

In the beat of disappointment.

Camila was widowed, Joanna fell in love

Maria tempted death, pushed by her love.

My father always told me, be careful my child,

When I think to the future, I don't forget my past.

Disillusion, disillusion

You and I dance

In the dance of loneliness.

When dawn breaks, my thoughts go wandering,

My fingers run on the guitar, as I gaze at the full moon.

Despite it all somewhere flows a spring of fresh water

Whoever drinks that water will feel no more bitterness.

Disillusion, disillusion

You and I dance

In the dance of loneliness.
