Rancho do Amor À Ilha

"a little piece of land,
Lost in the sea!...
On a little piece of land,
Beauty beyond compare...
Never has nature
Gathered so much beauty
Never has a poet
Had so much to sing!

On a little piece of land
Unmatched beauties!
Island of the charming girl,
Of the traditional lace maker
Island of the old fig tree
Where on a lovely afternoon
I’ll read my newspaper.

Your beautiful lagoon
Tenderness of a rose
A poem in the moonlight,
Crystal where the vain moon
Glamorous, coy
Comes to reflect..."
