Pr'esse canto do mundo
De onde é que ele virá
Do meu sonho profundo
Ou do fundo do mar
Com que voz cantará
Com que luz brilhará
Há de vir seja como for
Pr'esse canto do mundo
De onde virá o amor?
Nessa vida vazia
Por que tarda meu bem?
Uma imensa alegria
Que se guarda pra quem?
Seja um anjo do céu
Seja um monstro do mar
Venha num disco voador
Mas que saiba que é meu
No segundo que olhar
Pelo encanto maior
Pr'esse canto do mundo
Quando virá o amor?
O meu amor...
O meu amor...
