Helmsman - Homem do leme

Navigating my thoughts away in the vastness of youtube songs, I had to share this one, a favorit of mine from time to time it reflects a lot of me, or what I think at times... The problem is it is in portuguese so here goes a shoot at translation hope you like it :)



Alone in the night
A ship sails where to?
A light in the dark shines straight
overshadows all others.

And more than a wave, more than a tide...
They tried to arrest him, impose him a faith...
But, drifting at ease, breaking the sorrow ("Saudade" does realy translate)...
goes the one that fears nothing any more, goes the helmsman...

And a will to laugh, is born for the deepest of our being...
And a will to go, depart and run across the world,
life is always lost...

In the depth of the sea
lie the others, the ones who remained there.
In grey days
eternal rest they found there.

And more than a wave, more than a tide...
They tried to arrest him, impose him a faith...
But, drifting at ease, breaking the sorrow ("Saudade" does realy translate)...
goes the one that fears nothing any more, goes the helmsman...

And a will to laugh, is born for the deepest of our being...
And a will to go, depart and run across the world,
life is always lost...

In the depth of the horizon
a murmur blow, where does it go?
In the depth of time
the future escapes, and it is too late...

And a will to laugh, is born for the deepest of our being...
And a will to go, depart and run across the world,
life is always lost...
