by Mário de Andrade (1893 - 1945)

Rudá, Rudá
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Rudá, Rudá!...
 Tu que secas as águas,
 Faz com que os ventos do oceano
 Desembestem por minha terra
 Pra que as nuvens vão-se embora
 E a minha malvada brilhe
 Limpinha e firme no céu!...
 Faz com que amansem
 Todas as águas dos rios
 Pra que eu me banhando neles
 Possa brincar com a malvada
 Refletida no espelho das águas!...

Rudá, Rudá!...
Tu que estás no céu
E mandas nas chuvas
Rudá, faz com que minha amada
Por mais companheiros que arranje
Ache que todos são frouxos
Ache que todos são frouxos
Assopra nessa marvada
Sodades do seu malvado
Faça com que ela se lembre de mim amanhã
Quando o sol for-se embora  no poente
