Lyrics

A fonte das palavras
Ã^ uma fonte de água viva
Que jorra desda Adão e Eva
Para dar o nome à s coisas
Que eram órfãs à deriva
Todas as línguas são águas
Umas vivas outras mortas
Umas ditas estrangeiras
Mas todas regam bem as hortas
E cumprem função nas ribeiras
Vê as águas a passar
Debaixo daquela ponte
Vão ver o mar e ao chegar
Trazem o mar a ver a fonte
A fonte das palavras
Já falou Grego e Latim
E se agora fala inglês
Muda a corrente é assim
Muda o som de quando em vez
Vê as águas a passar
Debaixo daquela ponte
Vão ver o mar e ao chegar
Trazem o mar a ver a fonte
Vê as águas a passar
Debaixo daquela ponte
Vão ver o mar e ao chegar
Trazem o mar a ver a fonte
A fonte dos sinónimos
A ver a fonte
A fonte dos antónimos
A ver a fonte
A fonte dos Jerónimos
Ã^ a nossa fonte

Lyrics translation

The source of words
A source of Living Water
That gushes from Adam and Eve
To give the name to things
Who were adrift
All languages are water
Some alive some dead
Some so-called foreign ones
But they all water the gardens well
 € "â €" â € "â €" â € "â €" â € "â €" â€"
 € "â €" â € "â €" â € "â €" â€"
Under that bridge
Will see the sea and upon arrival
Bring the sea to see the fountain
The source of words
He already spoke Greek and Latin
And if you now speak English
Change the current is so
Changes the sound from when instead
 € "â €" â € "â €" â € "â €" â€"
Under that bridge
Will see the sea and upon arrival
Bring the sea to see the fountain
 € "â €" â € "â €" â € "â €" â€"
Under that bridge
Will see the sea and upon arrival
Bring the sea to see the fountain
The source of the synonyms
To see the source
The source of the anthems
To see the source
The source of Jerome
