Translation of Solitário Surfista / Surfista Solitário from Portuguese to English
I looked at the sea so as not to lose sight of myself
And I saw a solitary wave, running without breaking
As if it were a surfer
The wave looked at me, invited me by throwing its crest
Opening its arms like no one else does
And I, who am not Christ, but understand miracles
I walked on the water in the way that only those who know can
Aloha
Hail George
Hail Gabriel
Hey, the sea rose, George
It rose, they're saying it's 15 feet
And look at this beautiful beach
What a beauty, what a mermaid, wonderful
Wake up on a Sunday, have your coffee
Grab your surfboard, get your mother's blessing
Pray with faith and go to the sea, and go to the sea
Lonely surfer

Sweet sea home, vast and deep, my heart is vaster
It doesn't fit in this world and needs to overflow
Sailing is not necessary, it is necessary to surf
Nothing still, everything in motion
The ground is the wall and the ceiling at the same time
The wall collapsing and I'm inside, I accelerate and the beat accelerates
It beats so much until it pierces, soft water on hard stone
Every madman has his madness
I travel for this, almost always without a visa
The mermaid calls me, I can't resist
I know that every witch has her way of transforming
A slab of stone into solid gold, it seems like a spell
The mermaid calls me, I travel for this
Lonely surfer
Lonely surfer
Wake up on a Sunday, have your coffee
Grab your surfboard, get your mother's blessing
Pray with faith and go to the sea, and go to the sea, and go to the sea, go

I arrived at the beach, looked at the sea, entered the sea
I entered the sea, looked at the wave, entered the wave
I entered the wave and made the wave until the sand
I entered the wave that runs in my village
My wave is not just any wave
From my wave I come out with my head made
And on the sand a mermaid with woman's legs
More perfect than the most perfect wave
She guessed my future with her sunglasses
Filming me on the lefts and rights
I arrived at the sand and the mermaid entered the sea
And just for fun I lay where she lies
Shark in sheep's skin, a surprise attack
Predator turning into prey, a mermaid with woman's legs
Perfection or perversion of nature?

It took a while, was the sea good?
It got better, Jorge Benjor arrived
Lonely surfer is not alone anymore
Thank you very much, sea, for all this
My friend Gabriel, what a wonder
That's it, buddy
Hey, go for it, go for it, it's yours Jorge
