by Juvenal Galeno (1836 - 1931)

A jangada
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Minha jangada de vela,
Que vento queres levar?
Tu queres vento de terra,
Ou queres vento do mar?
Minha jangada de vela,
Que vento queres levar?

Aqui no meio das ondas,
Das verdes ondas do mar,
És como que pensativa,
Duvidosa a bordejar!
Minha jangada de vela,
Que vento queres levar?

Saudade tens lá das praias,
Queres n'areia encalhar?
Ou no meio do oceano
Apraz-te as ondas sulcar?
Minha jangada de vela,
Que vento queres levar?

Sobre as vagas, como a garça,
gosto de ver-te adejar,
Ou qual donzela no prado
Resvalando a meditar:
Ah! Minha jangada de vela,
Que vento queres levar?
