Tenda
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mesmo que nunca se aprenda
Tu me ensina a namorá
Que eu te ensino a fazê renda
Que apesar do céu, do carnaval
E do inferno dessa guerra
E da terra presa ao bem e ao mal
Reine paz na nossa tenda
De cetim o céu, de seda o chão
E as cem brisas que segredarão
Pelos mundos nossa lenda
Mesmo que nunca se aprenda
Eu te ensino a fazê renda
Que mais posso te ensinar
Eu que não porto outra prenda?
Que só sei dar vida à trama vã
Rei das belezas fugazes
Tu que trazes drama à vida sã
Quem sabe isso ainda se estenda
Tu me ensina amor a namorá
E eu talvez te ensine a me ensinar
Teça-se assim a fazenda
E a nós dois tudo se renda
