dei-te nome de deserto

Winter went high
when the sun saw you be born
you were daughter of an island
my sister for my will
To my eyes your eyes
were of an uncertain blue
I gave you the name
and you are queen
of a Sahara here so close

Your mysteries are so much
Your singing is mine
I gave you name of desert
And in the end you are my heaven

Goes on running calm life
some other times rises and falls
if the sadness is saudade
break of laughter that won't go out
Winter goes already high
I keep on feasting
Springtime we make up
there are many to celebrate

Your mysteries are so much
Your singing is mine
I gave you name of desert
And in the end you are my heaven

I gave you name
you are queen
my sister for my will
with your tight hug
I am here for what there be

I gave you name of desert
I gave you name of desert
And in the end you are my heaven
