from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Quando uma flor desabrocha
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Our translations:  ENG
Quando uma flor desabrocha,
parece sentir amor...
Quisera ver o teu seio
desabrochar como a flor.

Se eu pudesse ser o sol,
com que prazer te daria
todo o encanto da manhã,
toda a luz do melodia.

Meu coração é tão grande
que nele coubera o mar,
se o mar fosse o amor
que eu tenho para te dar!

Se por acaso eu encontro,
se vejo a imagem tua,
sinto um relampejo
dos dôces raios da lua!
