Not a professional translator here, so this is the best I could do. We sometimes whish we were a full river so we could overflow an explosion caple of everything breaking a gale caple of everything razing But other times we wish we had A dim corner where we could hide A maze where we could get lost and where we could make time stop Oh, ache from knowing that in life You're better of Being a good loser Oh, love, my lost fountain come heal this pain Of one more dreamer
@@joaolucasprates Thank you so much! The words of so many brazilian songs are poetry. It is very kind of you to translate...I know it isn't easy. I am just trying to learn a few songs by Jobim and get the correct sound of the musical language. I am also learning portuguese on an app, but it isn't really giving me what I want...I should have started to learn many years ago...but that is OK I am 69 and still trying! Maybe a real person as a teacher would help!
@@judythcasey2785 You're welcome! I too find these Vinicius' lyrics to be wonderful, and that was another reason why I wanted to translate them for you. I figured a foreigner should also be able to appreciate them as much as I do in my mother tongue. As for your learning process, it's never too late to learn new stuff! Maybe you could find a native teacher in your town? Either way, I hope you keep on learning, because I guarantee you there's a whole universe of poetry, music, cinema and literature in portuguese waiting to be unraveled by you. Have a good one :)
Fogo sobre terra Letra: A gente às vezes tem vontade de ser Um rio cheio pra poder transbordar Uma explosão capaz de tudo romper Um vendaval capaz de tudo arrasar … Mas outras vezes tem vontade de ter Um canto escuro onde poder se ocultar Um labirinto onde poder se perder E onde poder fazer o tempo parar … Oh, dor de saber que na vida É melhor de saída Ser um bom perdedor Amor, minha fonte perdida Vem curar a ferida De mais um sonhador
@@CuracaoVlogslas bases de la música del Brasil salen de ahí, de gente pobre y sin educación académica, de esos barrios de Bahía,y más allá también, y de la NOBLEZA de brasileños con estudios que la mostraron al mundo.
@@limaranis Que golpe de 2016? Pelo que sei foi eleição. Se vc não gostou, isso não torna golpe. Tive que aguentar PT por 14 anos e nunca chamei de golpe.
Como pode tanto talento não ter continuidade na música brasileira, deve ser pelo fim da "ditadura", perdeu a graça fazer coisas de qualidade, qualquer porcaria podia ser gravada e dar muito mais lucro.
