DESCRIPTION:
From Toninho Horta's Tribute album to Antonio Carlos Jobim, "From Ton to Tom" (1998), featuring Gal Costa with a heart-rending interpretation of the Vinicius de Moraes lyrics.
A translation to English:
Ah, no more can my heart live so torn
Enslaved to an illusion that is only disillusion.
No, life is always thus
Like a desperate moon showering melancholy on me
Poetry on me.
Go, sad song, from my chest
And sow the emotion that cries inside my heart,
My heart.
