Lua Branca

Oh, white moon of enchantment
If it is true that love shelters
Oh, come take the tears from my eyes
Oh, come kill this passion that walks with me

Oh, for who you are, come down from heaven, white moon
This bitterness from my chest tears
Give me the moonlight of your compassion
Oh, come, for God's sake, light up my heart

And how many times did you appear to me in heaven
Shining on a calm and starry night
Your light then surprised me
Kneeling at the feet of my beloved

And she was crying, sobbing, full of shame
A sweet kiss came to your lips
She left, abandoned me like that
Oh, white moon, have mercy on me
She left, White Moon, for whoever they are, have pity on me
