I take you with me
segunda-feira de Lisboa
in my ancient sea
in the Western Water,
in the Mediterranean
crowded with ships
and bodies of 'naked swimmers.
Children with the look of wild animals,
the lynx eyes of the Braganza,
gaze at the North.
Dreaming of the overseas,
like a garland they weave a dance.
I drag inside my heart,
All places summer waves:
At the entrance of Singapore
The coral from the Maldivas
Macao from us,
at one hour, at one hour.
I take you with me
Segunda-feira de Lisboa
in my ancient sea
in the Western Water
in the Mediterranean
crowded with ships and bodies
of naked swimmers
Segunda-feira de Lisboa
what an enchanting name!
It's Monday here.
Only .
