Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Quando O Sol Espreitar De Novo by Ana Moura from Portuguese to English.
Quis ser feliz
I wanted to be happy
Eu sei que eu sempre quis alguma coisa
I know I always wanted something
E jamais eu fui capaz de perder com o silêncio
And I was never able to lose to silence
Depressa mudo e só depois dou conta
I quickly change and only then realize
De arrasto na verdade que me pega
I'm dragged by the truth that catches me
E só passado o tempo
And only after time has passed
Depois de guerras minhas
After my own battles
Encontro o chão deserto
I find the deserted ground
Sou apenas eu não entendendo tudo
It's just me not understanding everything
Meu amor não é mesmo nada
My love, it's really nothing
Não há razão
There's no reason
Um não já é razão de sobra
A 'no' is already reason enough
E eu nem vou sequer tentar lutar com o desejo
And I won't even try to fight desire
Depressa o tempo passa e algo muda
Time quickly passes and something changes
Escondido nos segundos mais discretos
Hidden in the most subtle moments
E só chegado o tempo
And only when the time comes
Depois de coisas minhas
After my own experiences
Encontro o céu aberto
I find the open sky
Sou apenas eu não entendendo tudo
It's just me not understanding everything
Meu amor não é mesmo nada
My love, it's really nothing
Ainda espero ver-te a meu lado
I still hope to see you by my side
Quando o sol espreitar de novo
When the sun peeks out again
Ainda espero ver-te a meu lado
I still hope to see you by my side
Quando o sol espreitar de novo
When the sun peeks out again
