Alcione - O Surdo

one of the most beautiful Samba love songs.. rough translation of lyrics: Alcione - O Surdo (the drum) Friend, what irony of life You cry on the street For my people they rejoice And I am beating strongly for you and here in my chest there is pain it destroys me, and yet you understand me and tell me that the pain of love doesn't hurt my drum seems absurd And yet you hear me Much more than the friends at a bar Do not let the pain hurt you anymore With your drum beats, I give in to my tears and start to sing My drum is a strong beat on your skin Just listen this cry of yours The applause is our consolation My drum, my old friend and companion In the street and the yard From samba and loneliness Let me not get overcome with fatigue I neglect this embrace And undo the step and beat of my heart
