Lyrics
Mãe Africa
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.
No claro da lua, os passos na estrada
Em busca de um sonho, momento presente
Nossos olhos ao caos,
Seguem o preceito mais perto de Deus
Um sol no horizonte, que a manhã segura
Nos mostra o dia, que então se apresenta
Rasga o meu coração
Pela palavra que exprime o teu ser.
Mãe África
Grita de amor o teu filho
E o seio
Fortalecendo seu caminhar
Pro mundo,
Encontrar o irmão à cor
Pela sombra que paira sob a lua manchada.
Mas quando um fim for eterno
Na frase mais feita aos homens perversos
Vai pedir o seu nome
Deuses, Poetas que um dia escreveu
Complexo é ter consciência
De toda a ciência, à mão proibida
Vai comer o seu fruto
Tanto quanto o homem deverá ver.
