Portuguese

Nada Sei

Nada sei dessa vida
Vivo sem saber
Nunca soube, nada saberei
Sigo sem saber...

Que lugar me pertence
Que eu possa abandonar
Que lugar me contém
Que possa me parar...

Sou errada, sou errante
Sempre na estrada
Sempre distante
Vou errando
Enquanto tempo me deixar
Errando
Enquanto tempo me deixar

Nada sei desse mar
Nado sem saber
De seus peixes, suas perdas
De seu não respirar...

Nesse mar, os segundos
Insistem em naufragar
Esse mar me seduz
Mas é só prá me afogar...

English

I know nothing

i don't know anything about life
I live without knowing
I never knew, I will never know
I go on without knowing...

... what place belongs to me...
... which I can abandon
... what place contains me
... which can stop me

I'm a mistaken and errant person
I'm always on the road
I'm always so far
I keep making mistakes
until time permits me to
making mistakes
until time permits me to

I don't know anything about this sea
I swim in it without knowing...
... about its fishes, its losses
... and about the fact that it does not breath

In this sea, seconds...
... do insist on sinking
This sea seduces me
but just to get me drowned in it
