Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Oração by Mariza from Portuguese to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Triste e só anda meu coração
Sad and just walks my heart
Como anda a folha perdida no vento
How the leaf is lost in the wind
Procuro o caminho nesta escuridão
I seek the way in this darkness
Procuro a luz no pensamento
I seek light in thought
Busco a perdida oração
I seek the lost prayer
Que minha mãe me ensinou
That my mother taught me
Quero gritar a verdade
I want to scream the truth
Quero gritar a verdade
I want to scream the truth
Mas o vento me calou
But the wind shut me up
Pareço a madrugada molhada e fria
I look like a wet, cold dawn
Que vagueia como louca pela cidade
Who wanders like crazy around town
Nada me aquece a alma vazia
Nothing warms my empty soul
Estou sem tempo mas com idade
I'm out of time but with age
Busco a perdida oração
I seek the lost prayer
Que minha mãe me ensinou
That my mother taught me
Quero gritar a verdade
I want to scream the truth
Quero gritar a verdade
I want to scream the truth
Mas o vento me calou
But the wind shut me up
Busco a perdida oração
I seek the lost prayer
Que minha mãe me ensinou
That my mother taught me
Quero gritar a verdade
I want to scream the truth
Quero gritar a verdade
I want to scream the truth
Mas o vento me calou
But the wind shut me up
