My Inheritance: A Flower
Vanessa da Mata, Brazilian singer.
I found you in my garden
saddened, broken heart
aloof pet
I took you for me
Like a bandit full of vices
And I did like this, I did this.
Watered with so much patience
Pruned the pains, sorrows, diseases
Like the dried leaves that go away,
I worked.
I did everything, all my destiny
I split, I taught step by step,
Like of yourself, have hope and persistence
always.
My legacy to you
It is a flower, a bell, a song
A dream,
Neither a gun or a rock
I will leave
My legacy to you
Is the love, able to make you quiet,
Fully, recognizing on the world,
What is in itself
And today we remember
With no sorrow, no sadness
Outs of what life has given us
It certainly was gathering
You and me
I found you in my garden..
