Lyrics and Translation

Um dia de sol, eu fui pra trabalhar
Pensei em tudo que eu fiz nessa vida
E tudo que eu tenho pra andar
Sentada numa cadeira, dentro de mim eu corri
A mente mente bem
minha linda, vamos embora e sente
É respiração, ce liga nas ondas que chegam sem resistir
Illuminação, olhos fechados não vão conseguir ver essa
Oração, do movimento do vento em mim
 
In the light of day, I went on my way to work
I thought of all I’ve passed through in this life
And all that’s left for me to do
While sitting still in my seat, inside I ran and ran
The mind lies so well, my dear
Let’s escape and begin to feel
It’s breathe, connect to the waves that don’t resist
Illumination, your closed eyes won’t see this
Prayer, of the wind inside my chest
 
Segue segue segue toda vida
Segue segue segue toda vida
Segues segue segue toda vida
Segue segue segue toda vida
Onde a praia encontra o mar
As ondas nos levam, onde devemos chegar
Onde a praia encontra o mar
As ondas nos levam, onde devemos chegar
Batendo forte com o pulso da minha mae
Eu fico leve com o vento do pai
É respiração
No peito, na terra, no sky
Sempre pra frente com tudo that we try
Illuminação
O caminho é guiado do bem
Pes na areia brincando na mare
Essa oração
É simplesmente do movimento do vento em mim
Sempre pra frente do movimento do vento em mim
 
Follow, follow, follow all your life
Follow, follow, follow all your life
Follow, follow, follow all your life
Follow, follow, follow all your life
Where the beach meets the sea
The waves deliver us where we need to be
Where the beach meets the sea
The waves deliver us where we need to be
Beating strong with the pulse of my mother
I am light with the breeze of the father
It’s breathe
In the chest, in the earth, in the sky
Always moving forward with everything we try
Illumination
The path is guided by the good inside
Feet in the sand, playing in the tide
This prayer
It’s simply,
The movement of the wind inside me
Always moving forward
The movement of the breath inside me
