Diel's daydreams

Flores

Translation at the bottom

Flores vermelhas, flores amarelas
Flores compradas, flores colhidas
Flores na minha mão
Flores sobre meu caixão

Eu as rego em meu jardim
Eu as molho com meu pranto
Você as compra, vermelhas, para mim
Você me beija antes de partir

As amarelas, como vinhas, no chão
As amarelas, como cordas, no coração
As amarelas, como veneno, amargas são
As amarelas, como pedras, me atrapalharão

Flores compradas, flores colhidas
Flores dadas, flores pisadas
Obrigada, minha amada
Pela rosa oferecida


Flowers

Red flowers, yellow flowers
Flowers bought, flowers picked
Flowers in my hand
Flowers on my coffin

I water them in my garden
I wet them with my tears
You buy them, red ones, for me
You kiss me before you leave

The yellow ones, like vines, on the ground
The yellow ones, like ropes, in my heart
The yellow ones, like poison, are bitter
The yellow ones, like stones, will hinder me

Flowers bought, flowers picked
Flowers given, flowers trampled
Thank you, my beloved
For the rose offered
