Flor amorosa
Catulo da Paixão Cearense
Loving Flower
Loving flower, compassionate, sensitive, come, because
You’re a proud rose, conceited, so vain
For look, the rose loves to be kissed, it’s a flower, it’s a flower
Oh, I gave you a kiss, but forgive me, it was just a whim, my love
In a fragrant coral cup
I see no harm in giving a kiss
It’s a sign that I’ve fallen for you
Maybe in dreams is when I kissed you
If you could take from my lips
A kiss of yours, take it for God’s sake
See if you can wipe away that scent of sweet pea
It’s killing me, please, come here
You shouldn’t insist anymore
I’ve asked, do you want more? Here’s my heart
Oh, have mercy on my sighs, forgive me
Yes or no? Yes or no?
Look, I’m on my knees
Kissing, worshiping your feet
Under your, under your, cruel eyes
If you won’t forgive me
I won’t kiss anyone else ever again
If yesterday you kissed a jasmine from your garden, me, me
Oh, why do you swear, a thousand tortures?
A thousand hardships, why do you swear?
My heart sees no crime in kissing you, no, no
Just for a kiss, a little tease, so much shame
But why?
