Lyrics
De repente do rio fez-se o pranto
Silencioso e branco como a bruma
E das bocas unidas fez-se a espuma
E das mãos espalmadas fez-se o espanto
De repente da calma fez-se o vento
Que dos olhos desfez a última chama
E da paixão fez-se o pressentimento
E do momento imóvel fez-se o drama
De repente, não mais que de repente
Fez-se de trsite o que se fez amante
E de sozinho o que se fez contente
Fez-se do amor próximo, distante
Fez-se da vida uma aventura errante
De repente, não mais que de repente
Lyrics translation
Suddenly the river wept
Silent and white as mist
And from the joined mouths made foam
And the spread of hands was astonished
Suddenly from the calm was the wind
That from the eyes I broke the last flame
And the passion made the foreboding
And the still moment made the drama
Suddenly, no more than suddenly
It was made of trsite what became mistress
And alone what was made happy
It was made of close, distant love
Life has become a wandering adventure
Suddenly, no more than suddenly
