Description "Numa folha qualquer eu desenho um sol amarelo
(In any paper I draw a yellow sun)
E com cinco ou seis retas é fácil fazer um castelo
(And with five or six lines it's easy to draw a castle)
Corro o lápis em torno da mão e me dou uma luva,
(I outline the pencil around the hand and give myself a glove)
E se faço chover, com dois riscos tenho um guarda-chuva.
(And if I make it rain with two lines I have an umbrella)

Se um pinguinho de tinta cai num pedacinho azul do papel,
(If a little drop of ink falls in a little blue piece of paper,)
Num instante imagino uma linda gaivota a voar no céu...
(In a moment I imagine a beautiful seagull flying on the sky...)
Vai voando, contornando a imensa curva Norte e Sul,
(Goes flying,contouring the immense curve North and South,)
Vou com ela, viajando, Havai, Pequim ou Istambul.
(I go with her traveling,Hawaii, Peking or Istanbul)
Pinto um barco a vela branco, navegando, é tanto céu e mar num beijo azul..."
(I paint a white sailboat, navigating, it's so much sky and sea in a blue kiss...)
