Evocação
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Numa noite estrelada de Maio
Sua boca beijei a sonhar
E o perfume do seu quente seio
Pouco a pouco me fez delirar.
Eu senti neste doce momento!
Que a vida p'ra mim era o amor de você.

Nos seus belos cabelos de ouro
Onde o sol se reflete a brilhar
Eu quizera poder meu tesouro,
Entre eles viver ou morrer,
Mas o sonho tão lindo findou-se!
E eu vivo a chorar meu amor por você.

No horizonte azul deste céo
Vivo a recordar meu amor.
Sempre tão distante
Do meu triste olhar
Como a ilusão deste amor,
Ah! Da recordação viverei.
E serei feliz em sonha
Dentro do amor da ilusão...
Assim viver, por você. Ah!
