by Friedrich Rückert (1788 - 1866)
Translation by Antero Tarquínio de Quental (1842 - 1891)

O coração tem dois quartos
Language: Portuguese (Português)  after the German (Deutsch) 
O coração tem dois quartos:
Moram ali, sem se vêr,
Num a Dôr, noutro o Prazer.

Quando o Prazer no seu quarto
Acorda cheio de ardor,
No seu, adormece a Dôr...

Cuidado, Prazer! Cautela,
Canta e ri mais devagar...
Não vá a Dôr acordar....
