Today, we’re going to do a listening practice with Maria Rita<\/a>‘s song “Estrela, estrela.” This particular video has (imperfect) subtitles in English, but I’m going to include the original Portuguese lyrics so you can practice twice: one, matching the English translations to the song, and the second, following along with the Portuguese words. Though the lyrics are relatively simple, they use tu <\/em>rather than voc\u00ea<\/em>, so it’s a bit trickier to understand.<\/p>\n

Estrela, estrela<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Estrela, estrela
\nComo ser assim
\nT\u00e3o s\u00f3, t\u00e3o s\u00f3
\nE nunca sofrer<\/em><\/p>\n

Brilhar, brilhar
\nQuase sem querer
\nDeixar, deixar
\nSer o que se \u00e9<\/em><\/p>\n

No corpo nu
\nDa constela\u00e7\u00e3o
\nEst\u00e1s, est\u00e1s
\nSobre uma das m\u00e3os<\/em><\/p>\n

E vais e vens
\nComo um lampi\u00e3o
\nAo vento frio
\nDe um lugar qualquer<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00c9 bom saber
\nQue \u00e9s parte de mim
\nAssim como \u00e9s
\nParte das manh\u00e3s<\/em><\/p>\n

Melhor, melhor
\n\u00c9 poder gozar
\nDa paz, da paz
\nQue trazes aqui<\/em><\/p>\n

Eu canto, eu canto
\nPor poder te ver
\nNo c\u00e9u, no c\u00e9u
\nComo um bal\u00e3o<\/em><\/p>\n

Eu canto e sei
\nQue tamb\u00e9m me v\u00eas
\nAqui, aqui
\nCom essa can\u00e7\u00e3o<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
