Trovas de amor
 (Sung text for setting by F. Mignone)
 Matches base text
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Você diz que me quer bem,
Mas não é de coração...
Quem quer bem chega pra perto
Diz adeus, pega na mão...

No mundo não há quem pinte,
Havendo tantos pintores,
A jóia do teu retrato,
Teus olhos tão matadores.

Meu amor é como a sombra
Que a lua faz no jardim:
Mente ao longe, mas de perto
Nunca vi amor assim!

Ai! amor, por ti eu parto!
Por ti amor! voltarei.
Quanto amor levo pro mar,
Na terra quanto deixei!	

Composition:

    Set to music by Francisco Mignone (1897 - 1986), "Trovas de amor", 1936, published 1952 [ voice and piano ], São Paulo: CEMBRA
