Tarde na Glória

Language: Portuguese (Português)

Our translations: ENG

Na tarde clara, que empalidece,
Desponta, de repente,
A floração radiosa da terra.
À beira do mar, sob as árvores,
No alto das hastes de ferro forjado,
Os globos de cristal se enchem de luz.

Afternoon at Glória

Language: English after the Portuguese (Português)

 In the light afternoon, which becomes pale,
 Suddenly, it points out,  
 The gleaming bloom of the earth.
 At the sea edge, under the trees,
 At the top of the shaft made of forged iron
 The globes of crystal fill with light.
