by Fernando António Nogueira Pessoa (1888 - 1935)

Não, não digas nada
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Não, não digas nada!
Supor o que dirá
A tua boca velada
É ouvi-lo já-
 
É ouvi-lo melhor
Do que o dirias.
O que és não vem à flor
Das frases e dos dias.
 
És melhor do que tu.
Não digas nada: sê!
Graça do corpo nu
Que invisível se vê.
