O Cantador

Amanhece, preciso ir
Meu caminho é sem volta e sem ninguém
Eu vou pra onde a estrada levar
Cantador, só sei cantar
Ah! eu canto a dor, canto a vida e a morte, canto o amor
Ah! eu canto a dor, canto a vida e a morte, canto o amor
Cantador não escolhe o seu cantar
Canta o mundo que vê
E pro mundo que vi meu canto é dor
Mas é forte pra espantar a morte
Pra todos ouvirem a minha voz
Mesmo longe ...
De que servem meu canto e eu
Se em meu peito há um amor que não morreu
Ah! se eu soubesse ao menos chorar
Cantador, só sei cantar
Ah! eu canto a dor de uma vida perdida sem amor
Ah! eu canto a dor de uma vida perdida sem amor
