Roda Viva by Chico Buarque de Hollanda

The wheel (Free Translation)

There are days we feel like

who has departed or died

Have we got stiff

or has the world grow larger?

We yearn to speak out

Control our own fate

But there comes the wheel

and sweeps the fate away

Wheel world, wheel giant

Wheel windmill, wheel spintop

Time has wheeled in a flash

around my heart

We keep pushing against the tide

until we can't stand against anymore

Just at the homeward sealing we notice

how much we had left undone

For so long we have grown

the most beautiful rose garden

But there comes the wheel

and sweeps the rose garden away

Wheel world, wheel giant

Wheel windmill, wheel spintop

Time has wheeled in a flash

Around my heart

The mulatto woman's skirt

can't wheel anymore

I Can't play serenades

The samba's jam is over

We take the iniciative,

taking our guitar and singing out in the streets

But there comes the wheel

and sweeps the guitar away

Wheel world, wheel giant

Wheel windmill, wheel spintop

Time has wheeled in a flash

Around my heart

The samba, guitar, rose garden

all burned

A brief illusion,

gone with the early breeze

The nostalgia trapped in our heart

tries hard to stop the time run

But there comes the wheel

and sweeps the nostalgia away

Wheel world, wheel giant

Wheel windmill, wheel spintop

Time has wheeled in a flash

Around my heart
