Milton Nascimento "O cio da terra" lyrics

Translation to:enfr

O cio da terra

Debulhar o trigoRecolher cada bago do trigoForjar no trigo o milagre do pãoE se fartar de pão

Decepar a canaRecolher a garapa da canaRoubar da cana a doçura do melSe lambuzar de mel

Afagar a terraConhecer os desejos da terraCio da terra, propícia estaçãoE fecundar o chão

The earth in heat

Thresh the wheatCollect each kernel of wheatForge with wheat the miracle of breadAnd satiate yourself with bread

Cut the sugarcaneCollect the juice of the sugarcaneRob the sugarcane of its sweet honeySmear yourself with honey

Caress the earthKnow the earth's desiresThe earth in heat, the ideal seasonAnd fertilize the ground
