Before You and I

Hold me close little darling
And sing to me sweet
When the night comes a calling
And I’ve got dancing feet

How long must I wait
For the night to come?

Fourteen billion years ago;
Was no bird or a tree.
Before you and I.
Ain’t nothing hung on the horizon;
Was nothing there to see!
Before you and I.

How long must I wait
For the night to come?

Before you and I
Oh, hold me little darling
Before you and I
Oh, hold me little darling
Before you and I
Oh, hold me little darling

O jangadeiro chegando
Com muita animação
Trazendo seu peixe no corvo
De baixo do braço um arpão
Cansado com sono com frio
Cansado de tanto lutar
Esperando dias melhores
Lutando contras ondas do mar

Chega dia dois de fevereiro
Dia do presente de Yemanjá
Ele pega sua jangada
Antes começa a cantar

Eu vou levar presentes
Presentes de ouro eu vou
Ora yêyê oh, ora yêyê oh
E as baianas sambam
Ao son do agogô
Ora yêyê oh, ora yêyê oh

GOLDEN GIFTS


The jangadeiro arriving
With a lot of excitement
Bringing his fish in a crow
Under his arm a harpoon
Tired with sleep and cold
Tired of fighting so hard
Hoping for better days
Fighting the waves of the sea

February 2nd arrives
Yemanjá's gift day
He takes his raft
Before he begins to sing

I'll bring gifts
I'll bring gifts of gold
Now yêyê oh, now yêyê oh
And the baianas samba
To the sound of the agogô
Ora yêyê oh, ora yêyê oh

Día de muertos
Día de muertos
Estamos de fiesta
Siguen los recuerdos
Día de muertos
Día de muertos
Estamos de fiesta
Siguen los recuerdos

En la noche estrellada
En el aire perfumado
Las calacas bailan
En el campo y la ciudad
Con flores de cempasúchil
Y pan de muerto dorado
Preparamos el altar
Para nunca olvidar
Hoy hay fiesta
Prepara el tequila y los tamales
Brindemos por lo bueno
Y que se vayan to' los males
Las calles tan coloridas
Para un día tan especial
Celebramos por los nuestros
Por todos los esenciales

Día de Muertos, fiesta de colores
Las almas regresan a compartir amores
Recordemos a los que ya no están
Con risas y lágrimas, nunca se irán

Con risas y lágrimas, nunca se irán

Las velas parpadean
La ofrenda iluminada
Las fotos y memorias
En el altar colocadas
Las risas, las historias
Compartidas y cantadas
Unidos en este instante
La vida y muerte abrazadas

Day of the Dead

We are celebrating
Memories continue
Day of the Dead
Day of the Dead
We are celebrating
Memories continue

In the starry night
In the perfumed air
The skeletons dance
In the countryside and the city
With marigold flowers
And golden bread of the dead
We prepare the altar
To never forget
Today there's a party
Prepare the tequila and tamales
Let's toast to the good
And let all the evils go away
The streets so colorful
For such a special day
We celebrate for our own
For all the essentials

Day of the Dead, a festival of colors
Souls return to share loves
Let's remember those who are no longer here
With laughter and tears, they'll never leave
Day of the Dead, a festival of colors
Souls return to share loves
Let's remember those who are no longer here
With laughter and tears, they'll never leave

The candles flicker
The altar illuminated
The photos and memories
Placed on the altar
The laughter, the stories
Shared and sung
United in this moment
Life and death embraced
