Cuando te vi por primera vez Me flechaste tú Un regalo del cielo enviado Tu dulce presencia ha llegado Cuando te tuve entre mis brazos Amor nunca imaginado Cada mirada, un suspiro Y cada llanto un latido Tu dolor, siempre el mío Tus luchas, mis batallas Tus esfuerzos, mis empeños Tus logros, mis hazañas La prueba más bonita de lealtad y de paciencia El amor más grande siempre es el que se demuestra Te siento aunque te apartes, el amor de una madre Conmigo te tendré aunque vayas pa' otra parte La prueba más bonita que nos trae la vida Dejar el egoísmo y formar una familia Sé que voy a esperarte en vilo por las noches Así me sorprenda el sol con su reproche Seré yo tu guía Seré yo tu calma Regalo divino Lo dulce de la vida Respuesta a mis dudas Tus angustias, las mías Hijo de mi alma No temas, mi vida (Ah-ah-ah-ah) La prueba más bonita de lealtad y de paciencia El amor más grande siempre es el que se demuestra Te siento aunque te apartes, el amor de una madre Conmigo te tendré aunque vayas pa' otra parte La prueba más bonita que nos trae la vida Dejar el egoísmo y formar una familia Sé que voy a esperarte en vilo por las noches Así me sorprenda el sol con su reproche

Alguma coisa acontece no meu coração Que só quando cruzo a Ipiranga e a Avenida São João É que quando eu cheguei por aqui, eu nada entendi Da dura poesia concreta de tuas esquinas Da deselegância discreta de tuas meninas Ainda não havia para mim, Rita Lee A tua mais completa tradução Alguma coisa acontece no meu coração Que só quando cruzo a Ipiranga e a Avenida São João Quando eu te encarei frente a frente, não vi o meu rosto Chamei de mau gosto o que vi De mau gosto, mau gosto É que Narciso acha feio o que não é espelho E a mente apavora o que ainda não é mesmo velho Nada do que não era antes quando não somos mutantes E foste um difícil começo Afasto o que não conheço E quem vende outro sonho feliz de cidade Aprende de pressa a chamar-te de realidade Porque és o avesso do avesso, do avesso, do avesso Do povo oprimido nas filas, nas vilas, favelas Da força da grana que ergue e destrói coisas belas Da feia fumaça que sobe apagando as estrelas Eu vejo surgir teus poetas de campos e espaços Tuas oficinas de florestas, teus deuses da chuva Panaméricas de Áfricas utópicas, túmulo do samba Mais possível novo Quilombo de Zumbi E os novos baianos passeiam na tua garoa E novos baianos te podem curtir numa boa
