Fria Claridade [English translation]

In the center of brightness

Of this very sad day

Great, great is this city

And no one knows me

Then passed by me

Two lovely eyes

Thinking it a dream, seeing at last

Two eyes, of which there are only two

With all my senses

I had signs from God

And those two lovely eyes

Moved away from mine

Awaken, a clarity

Made me bigger and colder

Great, great was the city

And no one knows me
