Lembranças do Brasil
(Memories of Brazil)
Reminiscing about my trip to Brazil many years ago, I made a short spread combining photos I took in Rio de Janeiro and Belém do Pará with Brazilian songs that I think emulate the moment.
Song's featured: Um País Tropical by Jorge Ben Jor; Aquarela do Brasil by Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, and João Gilberto; Pescaria (Canoeiro) by Gal Costa; and Xapuri de Amazonas da Nazaré Pereira.
Rough Translation: I live in a tropical country, / blessed by God / and beautiful by nature, / but what beauty / in February with carnival
Rough Translation: The Brazil, samba that gives / a wobble, that makes you sway / The Brazil, of my love / land of our Lord
Rough Translation: The canoeist drops the net / Drops the net into the sea / The canoeist drops the net into the sea / The canoeist drops the net / Drops the net into the sea
Rough Translation: Dona maria, my little morena mother / I'm still so small and I miss you / To bathe in the rivers, drink tacacá / Drink açaí there in icoaraci
