2022 - GRAVIDADE / ILLUSIONS

 

Caetano Veloso

[Versão em inglês: Mark Lambert]

 

Icy, icy, icy, icy
Indoor igloo
Shiny white nothing to see
 
Ivy, ivy, ivy, ivy
Pricey building
People with nothing to sell me
 
Psyche, psyche, psyche, psyche
Aphrodite
Pleasure embedded in ice
 
I see, I see, I see, I see
Lights of illusions in darkness
Happiness drowning in sorrow
Bright transformations to borrow
Misleading signals to follow

Welcome betrayals to hollow
Icy misgivings to swallow
Inlay, inlay, inlay, inlay
Infinite rivers that sit in the desert
Icy, ivy, I see, psyche
Something of nothing to be

Araçá Azul

The Earth Is Blue

Versión en inglés: Damon and Naomi

I drank the black milk too deep

Day turned to ash – and night to fear

But from here the ancient sun feels new

And flying upside down the hearth is blue

Araçá azul is for real

The day is here and de dawn is real

2000 - O ESTRANGEIRO / BADAGRY BEACH

Música y letra: Caetano Veloso

Versión en inglés: Ben Onono

Mongo Park

The explorer loved the light of Badagry Beach

Singer Fela Kuti sang of the lights and the noise in her city air of Badagry Beach

Portuguese sailors found trade on the malarious shores of Badagry Beach

Rusty shackles remain and bare testament of what went before

And I, if I knew her less, would I love her more?

‘Cos when I get to close to her

Is when I can't see the beauty of her anymore

A masquerade, a beggar man, an Iroko tree, palm wine, a coral snake

Badagry was one of those beautiful and deadly things at the same time

Down by the mission under the Agia tree of Badagry Beach

And I wonder to myself how many secrets she holds and will never let show

And as I walk along her golden shore line

Diesel oil and sand under my feet

Washed by the tides that came before and come again

Harmattan winds are blowing

Harmattan winds are blowing

Spirits that swirl in the dust devils and disappear

A loneliness that is continental wanders far and wide

A loneliness that is an inward thing

Can rock itself to sleep every night

And I, if I knew her less, would I love her more?

If I knew her less, would I love her more?

‘Cos when I get too close to her

Is when I can't see the beauty of her anymore

Versión en inglés: Mutantes

I'd like to sing

The music lighted with the heat of the sun

I drew the flags high on the slip of the wind

I sent the lions to my neighbours' backyard

But all the people having dinner inside

Are very busy with their food

'Til they die

I told the man

To make of stainless steel a very sharp sword

To kill my girlfriend on the heart and did

At five o'clock at the central liebe stop

But all the people having dinner inside

Are very busy with their food

'Til they die

I told the man

To sew the seeds of dream in my bedroom flor

The leaves will know their way to reach out the sun

And their roots keep just going down, going down

But all the people having dinner inside

That same old people havin dinner inside

But all the people having dinner inside

That same old people havin dinner inside

Are very busy with their food

'Til they die

Letra y música: Caetano Veloso

Versión en inglés: Os Mutantes

You know, you must take a new look at the new land
The swimming pool and the teeth of your friend
The dirt in my hand
You know, you must take a look at me
Baby, baby
I know that’s the way

You know, you must try the new ice-cream flavor
Do me a favor, look at me closer
Join us and go far
And hear the new sound of my bossa nova
Baby, baby
It’s been a long time

You know, it’s time now to learn portuguese
It’s time now to learn what I know
And what I don’t know
I know, with me everything is fine
It’s time now to make up your mind
We live in the biggest city of South America
Look here, read what I wrote on my shirt:
Baby, baby
I love you

2004 - O LEÃOZINHO / LITTLE LION

Letra y música: Caetano Veloso

Versión en inglés: Meja

Tell me why you look so sad Little Lion

Tell me what´s been going on

With your broken heart and stolen desire

Tell me why you´re feeling blue Little Lion

I would think you need a friend

If you do I´m here for you Little Lion

If you try to fly, you´ll be going down

Life can be a drag while you´re trying

There will come a day when you look around

You will find the ceiling got higher

Tell me ´bout your thousand dreams Little Lion

What the future holds for you

Somebody to come and nourish the fire

Cuz no matter how you try Little Lion

To escape the pace of time

You´ll be glad for what you have Leãozinho

When you fall to hard you forget your pride

You don´t wanna be lost without it......

If you try to fly, you´ll be going down

Life can be a drag while you´re trying

There will come a day when you look around

You will find the ceiling got higher

Hope I´m being understood Little Lion

Try to fight those clouds away

They´re not doing any good Little Lion

Tell me why you´re feeling blue, Little Lion

Tell me what´s been going on

You know I am here for you Little Lion

Tell me what´s been going on Little Lion

Tell me why you look so sad, Leãozinho

Of marble and thin vapor

Uselessly open window

Letra: Caetano Veloso

Música: Robertinho de Recife

Versión en inglés: Bonde do Rolê

Baby don't deny it

You know, you wanna dance
The rhythm in a body
Is waiting for a chance

Feliz quem pode ver
Feliz quem pode ter
Para a visão, o tato
O contato e o prazer
O teu corpo mulato
Nesse transparecer
Além de todo o nylon...
Você
Você
Você
