Assim Caminha A Humanidade Lyrics in English Lulu Santos
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Assim Caminha A Humanidade by Lulu Santos from Portuguese to English.
Ainda vai levar um tempo
It's still going to take a while
Pra fechar o que feriu por dentro
To heal what hurt inside
Natural que seja assim
It's natural for it to be this way
Tanto pra você quanto pra mim
For both you and me
Ainda leva uma cara
It's still going to take ages
Pra gente poder dar risada
For us to be able to laugh
Assim caminha a humanidade
That's how humanity progresses
Com passos de formiga
With ant steps
E sem vontade
And unwillingly
Não vou dizer que foi ruim
I won't say it was bad
Também não foi tão bom assim
But it wasn't that good either
Não imagine que te quero mal
Don't imagine I wish you ill
Apenas não te quero mais
I just don't want you anymore
Ainda vai levar um tempo
It's still going to take a while
Pra fechar o que feriu por dentro
To heal what hurt inside
Natural que seja assim
It's natural for it to be this way
Tanto pra você quanto pra mim
For both you and me
Ainda leva uma cara
It's still going to take ages
Pra gente poder dar risada
For us to be able to laugh
Assim caminha a humanidade
That's how humanity progresses
Com passos de formiga
With ant steps
E sem vontade
And unwillingly
Não vou dizer que foi ruim
I won't say it was bad
Também não foi tão bom assim
But it wasn't that good either
Não imagine que te quero mal
Don't imagine I wish you ill
Apenas não te quero mais
I just don't want you anymore
Não te quero mais
I don't want you anymore
Não mais
Not anymore
Não vou dizer que foi ruim
I won't say it was bad
Também não foi tão bom assim
But it wasn't that good either
Não imagine que te quero mal
Don't imagine I wish you ill
Apenas não te quero mais
I just don't want you anymore
Não te quero mais
I don't want you anymore
Não mais
Not anymore
Não te quero mais
I don't want you anymore
Não mais
Not anymore
Nunca mais
Never again

Did you like this lyrics translation?
formiga — ant
Formiga means "ant". It's an interesting word choice because it's a common insect, but its use in this song is quite poetic and metaphorical.
Lulu Santos sings, "Assim caminha a humanidade / Com passos de formiga / E sem vontade" (Thus humanity walks / With ant steps / And without will). He uses the image of an ant's small, slow steps to describe humanity's progress as gradual and perhaps even reluctant, making a simple word carry a deeper, philosophical meaning.
