A lilial Virgem Maria
Language: Portuguese (Português)
A lilial Virgem Maria, Todas as tardes, ao poente, Surge na lua [alvinitente]1, Celestial janella fria. D'essa janella [refulgente]2 Vê tudo, tudo, e tudo espia, A lilial Virgem Maria Todas as [tardes]3, ao poente. Lá vem a lua fugidia... Sê minha amiga, ó Flor dormente! Esse teu ar indifferente, Esse teu ar desgostaria A lilial Virgem Maria.
