Seductively

In your abandoned garden sunlight still prevails：

The jasmine climbs the trellis fragrantly the

Jacaranda ultravioletly sways.

The blossom. each of them by your hand planted

Will even if I tell them of your sudden

Disappearance from us

Not believe the tale.

Though the samba has ended I know in the sound

Of your voice your piano your flute you are found

And the music within you continues to flow

Sadly lost Antonio.

You were my inspiration my hero my friend

On the highway of time will I meet you again

If the heart ever heals does the scar always show

For the lost Antonio

For the lost Antonio

In your abandoned garden beauty is unchanged：

The hummingbird still hovers for the scent the

Frangipane so seductively displays.

Camellias each of them by your hand planted

The sadness of your sudden disappearance still

Unknown to them

Await the kiss of rain.

Though the samba has ended I know in the sound

Of your voice your piano your flute you are found

And the music within you continues to flow

Sadly lost Antonio.

You were my inspiration my hero my friend

On the highway of time will I meet you again

If the heart ever heals does the scar always show

For the lost Antonio

For the lost Antonio
