Vento No Litoral Lyrics in English Legião Urbana
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Vento No Litoral by Legião Urbana from Portuguese to English.
De tarde eu quero descansar, chegar até a praia e ver
In the afternoon I want to rest, get to the beach and see
Se o vento ainda está forte
If the wind is still strong
E vai ser bom subir nas pedras
And it will be good to climb the rocks
Sei que faço isso pra esquecer
I know I do this to forget
Eu deixo a onda me acertar
I let the wave hit me
E o vento vai levando tudo embora
And the wind takes everything away
Agora está tão longe
Now it's so far away
Vê, a linha do horizonte me distrai
See, the horizon line distracts me
Dos nossos planos é que tenho mais saudade
It's our plans that I miss the most
Quando olhávamos juntos na mesma direção
When we looked together in the same direction
Aonde está você agora
Where are you now
Além de aqui dentro de mim?
Besides here inside me?
Agimos certo sem querer
We did the right thing unintentionally
Foi só o tempo que errou
It was just time that was wrong
Vai ser difícil eu sem você
It's going to be hard for me without you
Porque você está comigo o tempo todo
Because you're with me all the time
E quando vejo o mar
And when I see the sea
Existe algo que diz
There's something that says
Que a vida continua e se entregar é uma bobagem
That life goes on and giving up is foolishness
Já que você não está aqui
Since you're not here
O que posso fazer é cuidar de mim
What I can do is take care of myself
Quero ser feliz ao menos
I want to be happy at least
Lembra que o plano era ficarmos bem?
Remember the plan was for us to be okay?
Ei, olha só o que eu achei, cavalos-marinhos
Hey, look what I found, seahorses
Sei que faço isso pra esquecer
I know I do this to forget
Eu deixo a onda me acertar
I let the wave hit me
E o vento vai levando tudo embora
And the wind takes everything away

Did you like this lyrics translation?
cavalos-marinhos — seahorses
Cavalos-marinhos translates directly to "seahorses". This compound word is interesting because it literally means "sea horses", offering a visual and somewhat whimsical image.
In the context of the song, it appears as a sudden, almost out-of-place discovery at the very end, offering a moment of unexpected wonder and perhaps a glimmer of hope or distraction from the melancholic reflections on a lost love. It's a unique and memorable word that stands out from the more common vocabulary in the lyrics.
