Gonçalves Dias: “Canção do exílio” (julho 1843)
Minha terra tem palmeiras Onde canta o Sabiá;As aves, que aqui gorjeiam,Não gorjeiam como lá.
Nosso céu tem mais estrelas,Nossas várzeas têm mais floresNossos bosques têm mais vida,Nossa vida mais amores…
Não permita Deus que eu morra,Sem que eu volte para lá;Sem que desfrute os primoresQue não encontro por cá;Sem qu’inda aviste as palmeiras,
Onde canta o Sabiá.
My land has palm treesWhere the thrush sings.The birds that sing in hereDo not sing as they do there.Our skies have more stars,Our valleys have more flowers.Our forests have more life,Our lives have more loves.…May God never allowThat I die before I return;That I do not see the beautiesThat I cannot find in here;That I do not see the palm treesWhere the thrush sings.
