by Cecília Benevides de Carvalho Meireles (1901 - 1964)

Vais ganhar um colar, meu amor
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Vais ganhar um colar, meu amor,
um colar de conchinhas do mar...
Mais branquinho que o luar,
vais ganhar um vestido de espuma do mar...
Vais descer devagar,
vais comigo descer para o fundo do mar...
Meu amor, meu amor, ah!
Meu amor, vais brincar
Com peixinhos e flores e estrelas do mar...
E lá dentro do mar,
meu amor, meu amor,
tu vais vêr Iamanjar... Iamanjar!
A mãe d'água encantada
que é dona do mar! Ah!
