Pra não dizer que não falei das flores [English translation]

Walking ahead and singing

Following the verses of the melody

We all are equal,

United or not,

In the schools and streets

In the fields or building stations

We are walking ahead and singing

Following the verses of the melody

Come on, let's go away

Because it's not wise to be waiting for

The wise does not let the chance pass by

He never waits for it to come

Along the fields there is hunger

Even with abundant plantations

And in the streets,

Streams of doubtful people

Who still take a flower

As the strongest symbol of their convictions

People who still believe that

Flowers can put down the rage of guns

Come on, let's go away

Because it's not wise to be waiting for

The wise does not let the chance pass by

He never waits for it to come

We see armed soldiers

Some of them were ever loved, others were not

Most are equally lost

Holding a gun in hand

In the headquarters, they are taught of

That old pretty lesson

"To die for the sake of the Land"

But to go on without an opinion

Come on, let's go away

Because it's not wise to be waiting for

The wise does not let the chance pass by

He never waits for it to come

In the schools and streets

In the fields or buildind stations

We all are like soldiers

Holding guns or not

Walking ahead and singing

Following the verses of the melody

We all are equal

United or not

Our convictions now rest in our minds

The flowers were shot down

There is alone the faith in the coming future

And a page of the history to be written

Walking ahead and singing

Following the verses of the melody

Learning and teaching

Always a new lesson

Come on, let's go away

Because it's not wise to be waiting for

The wise does not let the chance pass by

He never waits for it to come
