Drão [English translation]

Drão!

Our love is like a grain

A seed made of illusion

That must die to sprout

To plant in some place

To give back life in the earth

To our sowings

Who could kill such a love?

The ways of our walkabouts*

A hard journey

through the dark night

Drão!

Don't think about our separation

Don't tear up your heart

True love is an empty space

It extends into infinity

An immense monolith

The architecture of us

The ways of our walkabouts

A tatami bed

For as long as life lasts

Drão!

The kids are all healthy

The sins are all my mine

God knows I have confessed

There's nothing left to pardon

And that is why compassion must reign

Who could kill

Such a love

If our love is a seed

Then it dies, and is born as wheat

It lives, and dies as bread

Drão!

Drão!
