Amor e Desprezo
Bartô Galeno
Love and Contempt
To love as I loved
No one ever loved
To suffer as I suffered
No one ever suffered
I lived without anyone, however
I didn't cry in bitterness, no
But one day I met someone
To whom I soon gave my heart
Today I suffer for loving too much
To a being who didn't know how to give me
The immense tenderness that I gave
What they knew was to despise me
To love as I loved
No one ever loved
To suffer as I suffered
No one ever suffered
I lived without anyone, however
I didn't cry in bitterness, no
But one day I met someone
To whom I soon gave my heart
Today I suffer for loving too much
To a being who didn't know how to give me
The immense tenderness that I gave
What they knew was to despise me
