lyrics

A água cura-se cura-se cura-se

Muda, limpa-se, transforma-se
A água cura-se, a água cura-se

Flui, corre, e lembra-se
de como se purifica, a água sabe

Fala, canta, traz-nos as memórias das montanhas
Salta, brinca, rega-nos os sonhos do amanhã

Translation:
Water heals itself
It moves, it cleans itself, it transforms itself
Water heals itself
It flows, it runs, it remembers how to purify itself
The water knows
Speak, sing, bring us the memories of the mountains
Jump, play, water the dreams of tomorrow for us.
