Wow, great job on the photo, we didn’t actually get to stop by there, but what a great place.

My dog’s third favourite little park in Antigua to go for a walk, after Escuela de Cristo and Belén. I always feel a bit restricted though…in case she yanks me into the middle of a passionate tryst where we will be less than welcome.

@Luis, thanks for posting the original lyrics in Portuguese so people can identify the words and concepts that will disappear along with the letter A.

Beautiful song. Here is the original lyrics in portugues so it is easier to identify the words that no longer will exist without the letter “A”.

Sem você nem tristeza teremos
Pra nos lamentar
Sem você nem morrer de saudade
Nem mesmo chorar
Pois não há chorar

E o amor?
O amor desaparecerá.
E o amor?
Da lembrança ninguém nem se lembrará
E o amor?
Se perder ninguém mais vai no olhar
E o amor?
Palavra vazia ninguém mais namorará
Namorará
Namorara

This song appears in Tom Ze’s album “The Hips Of Tradition” recorded in 1992.

In the recording of this song also participated two american musicians, David Byrne with his 12-string acoustic guitar and Greg Cohen playing bass.
