Água e Mel [English translation]

Between the branches of pine trees

I saw the moonlight of January

When there still was sunlight

//And in a shell from the beach

I heard a voice that brings on a faint

From a secret nightingale//

With water and honey

I ate bread with water and honey

And from the vista of a window

I kissed without knowing who

I have a rose

I have a rose and a carnation

In a little song from the clay

Which my mother gave me

It was through the national road

And through real woods

Behind a blue bird

In the depths of the eyes I bring

The road of Santiago

And the cruise of the south

I opened my eyes

I opened my eyes to the day

And I heard the melody

Which rises to the sky from the dust

//From the new wine

If I sampled the new wine

If I loved the king and the populace

My God why am I so alone//
