À Marília
 (Sung text for setting by A. Bocchino)
 See original
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
 ... 

Em vão se viram
Perlas mimosas,
Jasmins, e rosas
No rosto teu.
Em vão terias
Essas estrelas,
E as tranças belas,
Que o Céu te deu;
Se em doce versos
Não as cantasse
O bom Dirceu.

 ... 

Ah! vem, ó Bela,
E o teu querido,
Ao Deus Cupido
Louvores dar;
Pois faz que todos
Com igual sorte
Do tempo, e morte
Possam zombar:
Tu por formosa,
E ele, Marília,
Por te cantar.
