And then you'll see what I'll become My hair is falling and I'm gray and old The light of my eyes will soon fade away Could you try to picture that in mind? If I would stand, my back will bend My shoulders won't take that much weight Everything changes when we are apart Forgive me; I've just lost my hollow heart And if, Maria, you saw me like this You'll see that years hurt as much as feelings But, Maria, if you realize Maybe years won't pass us by As soon as you come I'll be healed enough Perhaps my youth will be shinning out In summer we still remain, in spring we sang In sickness we torn apart, Maria you've conquered my heart And if, Maria, you saw me like this You'll see that years hurt as much as feelings But, Maria, if you realize Maybe years won't pass us by And if your mild and sweet eyes have given live to stars What'd happen with those who have always loved You, Maria, make me feel knocked down Please, my darling, hear this song clear and loud Oh, Maria, it's for you that I sing You know, darling, years hurt as much as feelings But, Maria, if you realize Maybe years won't pass us by *Baseado no poema "Marília de Dirceu" de Tomás Antônio Gonzaga
