Soldiers

Era logo após o amanhecer e lá embaixo, perto do mar,It was just after sunrise and down by the sea,
na areia onde nada vai crescer,down on the sand flats where nothing will grow,
vindos com batidas e passos como se fosse um sonhocome drumming and footsteps like out of a dream
onde as águas verde-douradas vêm.Where the golden green waters come in.
Apenas nove soldados sortudos conseguiram passar a noite,Just nine lucky soldiers had come through the night,
metade deles feridos e mal vivos.Half of them wounded and barely alive.
Apenas nove de vinte estavam voltando pra casa com onze histórias tristes pra contar.Just nine out of twenty was headed for home with eleven sad stories to tell.

Eu lembro bem quando saí da cama,I remember quite clearly when I got out of bed,
Eu disse, oh, bom dia, que dia lindo.I said, oh, good morning what a beautiful day.
