Maria Lisboa [English translation]
She's a fish seller, she wears sandals,
She has movements of a cat;
//In the basket, the caravel,
In the heart, the frigate.//
Instead of crows, on the shawl,
Seagulls come to sit.
//When the wind takes her to the ball,
She dances with the sea at the ball.//
The dress is made of shells,
Seaweeds on her hair.
//And in her veins, the yelp
Of the motor of a trawler.//
She sells dreams and sea breeze,
She shouts out storms.
//Her first name : Maria,
Her surname : Lisboa.//
