Aria (Cantilena)
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Our translations:  ENG ENG FRE GER ITA SPA
Tarde uma nuvem rósea lenta e transparente.
Sobre o espaço, sonhadora e bela!
Surge no infinito a lua docemente,
Enfeitando a tarde, qual meiga donzela
Que se apresta e a linda sonhadoramente,
Em anseios d'alma para ficar bela
Grita ao céu e a terra toda a Natureza!
Cala a passarada aos seus tristes queixumes
E reflete o mar toda a Sua riqueza...
Suave a luz da lua desperta agora
A cruel saudade que ri e chora!
Tarde uma nuvem rósea lenta e transparente
Sobre o espaço, sonhadora e bela!

Aria
Language: Spanish (Español)  after the Portuguese (Português) 
Tarde una nube rosa, lenta y transparente.
Sobre el espacio, soñadora y bella!
Surge en el infinito la luna dulcemente, 
vistiendo la tarde como una dulce doncella
que se prepara linda, soñadoramente,
con anhelos del alma para estar bella
¡Grita al cielo y a la tierra toda la naturaleza!
Cierra el pase a sus tristes quejas
Y refleja el mar toda su riqueza...
La suave luz de la luna despierta ahora
el cruel anhelo que ríe y llora. 
Tarde una nube rosa lenta y transparente
Sobre el espacio, soñadora y bella.
