by Eduardo Tourinho (1896 - ?)

Noturno
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Faz luar e faz frio.
A noite espalma as longas asas plácidas
Que calma!
Neblina...
Fluido...luz...
Matéria e alma...

Pela quietude azul da noite morta
Tortura-me o agro engano atroz e absurdo
De julgar teu o tardo passo surdo
De alguém que passa pela minha porta.

A luz escorre diáfana
É a teia clara, glacial, sutil da lua cheia
Desfiando e fiando sombras sobre a areia.

Que imensa solidão na noite morta.
Que infinita saudade me rodeia.
