by Dora Alencar Vasconcellos (1910 - 1973)

Cair da tarde
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
A garça voou,
a sombra ficou,
anoiteceu,
levando o brancor!
ah!

A mata dormiu,
o vento acabou
a folha caiu,
fazendo rumor
ao tocar!
ah!

O ramo gemeu
o ninho vibrou,
o rio bebeu
as nuvens do céu.
ah!

O eco passou
bem perto daqui,
as vozes levou,
rompendo manhãs
ao morrer
ah!
