by Florbela Espanca (1894 - 1930)

Gosto de ti, ó chuva, nos beirados
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Gosto de ti, ó chuva, nos beirados,
Dizendo coisas que ninguém entende!
Da tua cantilena se desprende
Um sonho de magia e de pecados.

Dos teus pálidos dedos delicados
Uma alada canção palpita e ascende,
Frases que a nossa boca não aprende,
Murmúrios por caminhos desolados.

Pelo meu rosto branco, sempre frio,
Fazes passar o lúgubre arrepio
Das sensações estranhas, dolorosas...

Talvez um dia entenda o teu mistério...
Quando, inerte, na paz do cemitério,
O meu corpo matar a fome às rosas!
