Lyrics
Um dia quebrarei todas as pontes
Que ligam o meu ser, vivo e total
À agitação do mundo irreal
E calma subirei até às fontes
Irei até às fontes onde mora
A plenitude, o límpido esplendor
Que me foi prometido em cada hora
E na face incompleta do amor
Irei beber a luz e o amanhecer
Irei beber a voz dessa promessa
Que às vezes como um voo me atravessa
E nela cumprirei todo o meu ser
Lyrics translation
One day I'll break all the bridges
That connect my being, alive and total
To the agitation of the unreal world
And calm I'll rise to the springs
I'll go to the springs where you live
The fullness, the clear splendor
That I was promised in every hour
And on the incomplete face of love
I'll drink the light and the dawn
I'll drink The Voice of that promise
That sometimes as a flight crosses me
And in it I will fulfill all my being
