É sempre bom lembrar
It's always good to remember
Que um copo vazio
What an empty glass
Está cheio de ar
It's full of air
É sempre bom lembrar
It's always good to remember
Que o ar sombrio de um rosto
That the dark look of a face
Está cheio de um ar vazio
It's filled with empty air
Vazio daquilo que no ar do copo
Emptiness of what is in the air of the glass
Ocupa um lugar
Occupies a place
É sempre bom lembrar
It's always good to remember
Guardar de cor que o ar vazio
Save by heart that empty air
De um rosto sombrio
Of a dark face
Está cheio de dor
It's full of pain
É sempre bom lembrar
It's always good to remember
Que um copo vazio
What an empty glass
Está cheio de ar
It's full of air
Que o ar no copo ocupa o lugar do vinho
That the air in the glass takes the place of the wine
Que o vinho busca ocupar o lugar da dor
That wine seeks to take the place of pain
Que a dor ocupa metade da verdade
That pain occupies half of the truth
A verdadeira natureza interior
The true inner nature
Uma metade cheia
A half full
Uma metade vazia
An empty half
Uma metade tristeza
A half sadness
Uma metade alegria
A half joy
A magia da verdade inteira
The magic of the whole truth
Todo poderoso amor
All powerful love
A magia da verdade inteira
The magic of the whole truth
Todo poderoso amor
All powerful love
É sempre bom lembrar
It's always good to remember
Que um copo vazio
What an empty glass
Está cheio de ar
It's full of air
É sempre bom lembrar
It's always good to remember
Que um copo vazio
What an empty glass
