by Luís de Camões (c1524 - 1580)

De dentro tengo mi mal
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
De dentro tengo mi mal
que de fuera no hay señal.

Mi nueva y dulce querella
es invisible á la gente:
el alma sola la siente
que el cuerpo no es digno de ella:
como la viva centella
se encubre en el pedernal,
de dentro tengo mi mal.
