by (Marcus) Vinícius de Moraes (1913 - 1980)

Balada da flor da terra
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Nem a luz da lua na tarde
Nem a onda do mar quando ela vem
Nem a flor do céu quando se abre
Têm a graça de você
Meu amor é bonita é bonita
Ai que aroma o corpo do meu bem
Ai que negros são os seus cabelos
Meu bem, não vá mais embora 
Não me deixe por favor
Sem meu bem eu me morro 
Eu me morro de amor.
