And I thank God I'm alive.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off of you.

Pardon the way that I stare,( the way that i stare)
There's nothing else to compare,
The sight of you leaves me weak,
There are no words left to speak,( words left to speak)
But if you feel like I feel,
Please let me know that it's real,
You're just too good to be true,
Can't take my eyes off of you,


I need you baby. if its quite alright,
I need you baby to warm my lonely nights,
I love you baby. Trust in me when I say okay,(it's okay)

Oh pretty baby, now that I found you, stay,
And let me love you,
oh baby let me love you. oh baby

You're just too good to be true,
Can't take my eyes off of you,



I need you baby, and if it's quite all right,
I need you baby to warm the lonely night,
I love you baby. Trust in me when I say it's okay

Oh pretty baby, don't let me down I pray,
Oh pretty baby, now that I found you, stay,
And let me love you, oh baby let me love you oh baby

"Canção Lógica" de Fagundes Varela -Declamação

Teus olhos são duas sílabas
Que me custam soletrar,
Teus lábios são dous vocábulos
Que não posso,
Que não posso interpretar.

Teus seios são alvos símbolos
Que vejo sem traduzir;
São os teus braços capítulos
Que podem,
Que podem me confundir.

Teus cabelos são gramáticas
Das línguas todas de amor,
Teu coração - tabernáculo
Muito próprio,
Próprio de ilustre cantor.

O teu caprichoso espírito,
Inimigo do dever,
É um terrível enigma
Ai! que nunca,
Que nunca posso entender.

Teus pezinhos microscópios,
Que nem rastejam no chão,
São leves traços estéticos
Que transtornam,
Que transtornam a razão!

Os preceitos de Aristóteles
Neste momento quebrei!
Tendo tratado dos píncaros,
Oh! nas bases,
Nas bases me demorei.

"Smoke gets in your eyes", Eartha Kitt

They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
Oh, I of course replied
Something here inside cannot be denied

They said someday you'll find
All who love are blind
Oh, when your heart's on fire
You must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed
To think they could doubt my love
Yet today my love has flown away
I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride
Tears I can not hide
Oh, so I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
Smoke gets in your eyes



Descansa em Paz!...

"When did your heart go missing?", Rooney

Love don't come so easily
This doesn't have to end in tragedy
I have you and you have me
We're one in a million
Why can't you see?

I'm waiting, waiting for nothing
You're leaving, leaving me hanging
When did your heart go missing?
When did your heart go missing?
I treat you like a princess
But your life is just one big mess
When did your heart go missing?
When did your heart go missing, yeah?

I meant every word I said
I never was lying when we talked in bed
I'm retracing every step in my head
What did I miss back then?
I was so, so misled

I'm waiting, waiting for nothing
You're leaving, leaving me hanging
When did your heart go missing?
When did your heart go missing?
I treat you like a princess
But your life is just one big mess
When did your heart go missing?
When did your heart go missing?

I don't understand
How could you forget what we had,
It's so wrong

I'm waiting, waiting for nothing
You're leaving, leaving me hanging
When did your heart go missing?
When did your heart go missing?
I treat you like a princess
But your life is just one big mess
When did your heart go missing?
When did your heart go missing?

Yeah!

Things were so good
We had a little dream
A little dream together
Buy a house, settle down, do our thing
But you disappeared on me
And your heart, your heart went missin'
I don't know how to find it
I don't know where it is
I don't know where your heart went
It was here just the other day
Now it's gone
I'm gonna call the police
Call the investigator, the heart investigator

"Last Christmas", Whigfield

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby do you recognise me?
Well it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me

(Happy Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I Love You" I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
(Oooh. Oooh Baby)

A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Oooh Oooh
Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
(Gave you my heart)
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Next year
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
special
someone
someone
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
who'll give me something in return
I'll give it to someone
hold my heart and watch it burn
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
I've got you here to stay
I can love you for a day
I thought you were someone special
gave you my heart
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone
last christmas I gave you my heart
you gave it away
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone

"9 to 5", Sheena Easton

"Breatheless", The Corrs

Go on, go on, leave me breathless
Come on
Hey yeah

The day light’s fading slowly but time with you is standing still
I’m waiting for you only, the slightest touch and I feel weak
I cannot lie, from you I cannot hide
And I’m losing the will to try
Can’t hide it (can’t hide it), can’t fight it (can’t fight it)

So go on, go on, come on, leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me until I can’t deny this loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss
Go on (go on), go on (go on), yeah, come on

Yeah

And if there’s no tomorrow and all we have is here and now
I’m happy just to have you, you’re all the love I need
Somehow it’s like a dream although I’m not asleep
And I never want to wake up
Don’t lose it (don’t lose it), don’t leave me (don’t leave me)

So go on, go on, come on, leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me until I can’t deny this loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss
Go on (go on), go on (go on), yeah, come on (come on)

Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

And I can’t lie, from you I cannot hide
And I’ve lost my will to try
Can’t hide it (can’t hide it), can’t fight it (can’t fight it)

So go on (go on), go on (go on), come on, leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me until I can’t deny this loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss

Go on (go on), go on (go on), come on, leave me breathless
Go on, go on

"I Try", Macy Gray

Games, changes and fears
When will they go from here
When will they stop
I belive that fate has brought us here
And we should be together babe
But we're not
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
And I'll try to keep my cool, but I'm feenin'

I try to say goodbye and I choke
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here

I may appear to be free
But I'm just a prisoner of your love
And I may seem all right and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front
Just a front, hey
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
And I'll try to keep my cool, but I'm feenin'

I try to say goodbye and I choke
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here

Here is my confession
May I be your possession
Boy, I need your touch
Your love, kisses and such
With all my might I try
But this I can't deny
Deny

I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
(but I'm dreaming of you babe)
And I'll keep my cool, but I'm feenin'

I try to say goodbye and I choke (yeah)
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
(when you are not near aahh)
Goodbye and I choke (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I try to walk away and I stumble (hey, hey, hey)
Though I try to hide it, it's clear (say it Lord)
My world crumbles when you are not here

Goodbye and I choke (I'm choking)
I try to walk away and I stumbe
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
(when you are not near, yeah, yeah yeah)
Yeah, yeah..

"Back at one", Brian McKnight

It's undeniable...that we should be together...
It's unbelievable how I used to say that I found in her...
The places you need to know, if you don't know just how I feel,
Then let me show you now that I'm for real...
If all things in time, time will reveal...

Yeah... One...you're like a dream come true...
Two... just wanna be with you...
Three... girl it's plain to see...that you're the only one for me...
Four...repeat steps one to three...
Five... make you fall in love with me...
If ever I believe our work is done....then I start back at one.(yeah)

So Incredible...the way things work themselves out...
And all emotional, once you know that it's all about babe...
And undesirable...for us to be apart...
Never would have made it very far...
'Cause you know that you got the keys to my heart

Cause... One...you're like a dream come true...
Two... just wanna be with you...
Three... girl it's plain to see...that you're the only one for me...
Four...repeat steps one to three...
Five... make you fall in love with me...
If ever I believe our work is done....then I start back at one.

Say farewell to the dark night...I see the coming of the sun...
I feel like a little child..whose life has just begun...
You came and reached into the light,
Into this lonely heart of mine...
You threw out the life line...just in the nick of Tiimmmeeee.....

One...you're like a dream come true
Two... just wanna be with you
Three... girl it's plain to see..that you're the only one for me..girl and...
Four...repeat steps one to three
Five... make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe our work is done....then I start back at one.

"Underneath your clothes", Shakira

You're a song
Written by the hands of god
Don't get me wrong cause
This might sound to you a bit odd
But you own the place
Where all my thoughts go hiding
And right under your clothes
Is where I find them

Underneath Your Clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl honey

Because of you
I forgot the smart ways to lie
Because of you
I'm running out of reasons to cry
When the friends are gone
When the party's over
We will still belong to each other

Underneath Your Clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl honey

I love you more than all that's on the planet
Movin' talkin' walkin' breathing
You know it's true
Oh baby it's so funny
You almost don't believe it
As every voice is hanging from the silence
Lamps are hanging from the ceiling
Like a lady tied to her manners
I'm tied up to this feeling

Underneath Your Clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl honey

"Farewell my Summer love", Michael Jackson (tributo)

Oooh,
Farewell my Summer love, farewell
Girl I won't forget you,
Farewell, my Summer love, farewell, ooh

I found my happiest days,
When you came to see your grandma in May
I bumped into you by the corner store
I told you that you sure looked good, now

Your grandma's house was next to mine
We were together most of the time
But Summer's gotten away from us
Time's moving too fast for us
(Bye, bye)

Don't turn around
'Cause you might see me cry
Farewell my Summer love, farewell
Girl I won't forget you
Farewell, my Summer love, farewell, ooh, yeah

When you return to your hometown
And you discuss your trip
Will I be the guy that you put down
Or someone that you don't forget, no?

I'll never forget you
And maybe next year
When you're out of school
You'll return, but until you do, baby
(Bye, bye)

Don't turn around
You might see me cry
Farewell my Summer love, farewell
Girl I won't forget you
Farewell, my Summer love, farewell, yeah

Oooh
Farewell, farewell
Oooh,
Farewell, farewell

If you remember my name,
(Drop a line)
Drop a line sometime, yeah
Yeah, ooh
Girl I won't forget you
Farewell my Summer love, farewell
Girl I won't forget you

When you return to your hometown
And you discuss your trip
Will I be the guy that you put down
Or someone that you don't forget, no?

I'll never forget you
And maybe next year
When you're out of school
You'll return, but until you do, baby
(Bye, bye)

Don't turn around
You might see me cry
Farewell, my Summer love, farewell, oohh, yeah
Farewell, my Summer love, farewell

"Angel", Aerosmith

I'm alone
Yeah, I don't know if I can face the night
I'm in tears and the cryin' that I do is for you
I want your love - Let's break the walls between us
Don't make it tough - I'll put away my pride
Enough's enough I've suffered and I've seen the light



Baby
You're my angel
Come and save me tonight
You're my angel
Come and make it all right


Don't know what I'm gonna do
About this feeling inside
Yes it's true - Loneliness took me for a ride
Without your love - I'm nothing but a begger
Without your love - a dog without a bone
What can I do I'm sleeping in this bed alone




Baby
You're my angel
Come and save me tonight
You're my angel
Come and save me tonight


You're the reason I live
You're the reason I die
You're the reason I give
When I break down and cry
Don't need no reason why


Baby, Baby



You're my angel
Come and save me tonight
you're my angel
Come and take me allright
Come and save me tonight, Come and save me tonight, Come and save me tonight,
Come and save me tonight, Come and save me tonight

"War no More", Billy Wirth

"Angels", Robbie Williams (legendado)

I sit and wait
does an angel contemplate my fate
and do they know
the places where we go
when we´re grey and old
´cos I´ve been told
that salvation lets their wings unfold
so when I’m lying in my bed
thoughts running through my head
and I feel that love is dead
I’m loving angels instead

and through it all she offers me protection
a lot of love and affection
whether I’m right or wrong
and down the waterfall
wherever it may take me
I know that life wont break me
when I come to call she wont forsake me
I’m loving angels instead

when I’m feeling weak
and my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
and I know ill always be blessed with love
and as the feeling grows
she breathes flesh to my bones
and when love is dead
I’m loving angels instead

and through it all she offers me protection
a lot of love and affection
whether I’m right or wrong
and down the waterfall
wherever it may take me
I know that life wont break me
when I come to call she wont forsake me
I’m loving angels instead

“What would happen”, Meredith Brooks

Electricity
Eye to Eye
Hey don't I know you
I can't speak

Striped my senses
On the spot
I've never been defenseless
I can't even make sense of this
You speak and I don't hear a word

What would happen if we kissed
Would your tongue slip past my lips
Would you run away
Would you stay
Or would I melt into you
Mouth to mouth
Lust to lust
Spontaneously combust

The room is spinning
Out of control
Act like you didn't notice
Brushed my hand

Forbidden fruit
Ring on my finger
You're such a moral moral man
Would you throw it away
No question
Will I pretend I'm innocent

What would happen if we kissed
Would your tongue slip past my lips
Would you run away
Would you stay
Or would I melt into you
Mouth to mouth
Lust to lust
Spontaneously combust

What would happen if we kissed

I struggle with myself again
Quickly the walls come crumbling
Don't know if I can turn away

What would happen if we kissed
Would your tongue slip past my lips
Would you run away
Would you stay
Or would I melt into you
Mouth to mouth

If we kissed
Would your tongue slip past my lips
Would you run away
Would you stay
Or would I melt into you
Mouth to mouth
If we kissed
If we kissed

"Encosta-te a mim", Jorge Palma

Encosta-te a mim,
nós já vivemos cem mil anos
encosta-te a mim,
talvez eu esteja a exagerar
encosta-te a mim,
dá cabo dos teus desenganos
não queiras ver quem eu não sou,
deixa-me chegar.
Chegado da guerra, fiz tudo p´ra sobreviver
em nome da terra, no fundo p´ra te merecer
recebe-me bem, não desencantes os meus passos
faz de mim o teu herói, não quero adormecer.

Tudo o que eu vi,
estou a partilhar contigo
o que não vivi, hei-de inventar contigo
sei que não sei, às vezes entender o teu olhar
mas quero-te bem, encosta-te a mim.

Encosta-te a mim,
desatinamos tantas vezes
vizinha de mim, deixa ser meu o teu quintal
recebe esta pomba que não está armadilhada
foi comprada, foi roubada, seja como for.

Eu venho do nada, porque arrasei o que não quis
em nome da estrada, onde só quero ser feliz
enrosca-te a mim, vai desarmar a flor queimada
vai beijar o homem-bomba, quero adormecer.

Tudo o que eu vi,
estou a partilhar contigo o que não vivi,
um dia hei-de inventar contigo
sei que não sei, às vezes entender o teu olhar
mas quero-te bem, encosta-te a mim

"Se eu fosse um dia o teu olhar", Pedro Abrunhosa

Frio,
o mar
Por entre o corpo
Fraco de lutar.
Quente,
O chão
Onde te estendo
E te levo a razão.
Longa a noite
E só o sol
Quebra o silêncio,
Madrugada de cristal.
Leve, lento, nu, fiel
E este vento
Que te navega na pele.
Pede-me a paz
Dou-te o mundo
Louco, livre assim sou eu
(Um pouco +...)
Solta-te a voz lá do fundo,
Grita, mostra-me a cor do céu.
Se eu fosse um dia o teu olhar,
E tu as minhas mãos também,
Se eu fosse um dia o respirar
E tu perfume de ninguém.
Se eu fosse um dia o teu olhar,
E tu as minhas mãos também,
Se eu fosse um dia o respirar
E tu perfume de ninguém.
Sangue,
Ardente,
Fermenta e torna aos
Dedos de papel.
Luz,
Dormente,
Suavemente pinta o teu rosto a
pincel.
Largo a espera,
E sigo o sul,
Perco a quimera
Meu anjo azul.
Fica, forte, sê amada,
Quero que saibas
Que ainda não te disse nada.
Pede-me a paz
Dou-te o mundo
Louco, livre assim sou eu
(Um pouco +...)
Solta-te a voz lá do fundo,
Grita, mostra-me a cor do céu.
Se eu fosse um dia o teu olhar,
E tu as minhas mãos também,
Se eu fosse um dia o respirar
E tu perfume de ninguém.
Se eu fosse um dia o teu olhar,
E tu as minhas mãos também,
Se eu fosse um dia o respirar
E tu perfume de ninguém.

"It must have been love", Roxette (legendado)

Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely, is there a silence
In the bedroom and all around

Touch me now, I close my eyes
And dream away...

It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now
From the moment we touched till the time had run out

Make believing we're together
That I'm sheltered by your heart
But in and outside I turn to water
Like a teardrop in your palm

And it's a hard winter's day
I dream away...

It must have been love, but it's over now
It was all that I wanted, now I'm living without
It must have been love, but it's over now
It's where the water flows, it's where the wind blows

It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now
From the moment we touched till the time had run out

"Again", Lenny Kravitz (Legendado)

I've been searching for you
I heard a cry within my soul
I've never had a yearning quite like this before
Know that you are walking right through my door

All of my life
Where have you been
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
And if that day comes
I know we could win
I wonder if I'll ever see you again

A sacred gift of heaven
For better worse, wherever
And I would never let somebody break you down
Until you cried, never

All of my life
Where have you been
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
And if that day comes
I know we could win
I wonder if I'll ever see you again

At every time I've always known
That you where there, upon your throne
A lonely queen without her king
I longed for you, my love forever

All of my life
Where have you been
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
And if that day comes
I know we could win
I wonder if I'll ever see you again

All of my life
Where have you been
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
And if that day comes
I know we could win
I wonder if I'll ever see you again

All of my life
Where have you been
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
And if that day comes
I know we could win
I wonder if I'll ever see you again

I wonder if I'll ever see you again
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
I wonder if I'll ever see you again

I wonder if I'll ever see you again
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
I wonder if I'll ever see you again

Lenda de Narciso (Mitologia Grega)

"Tonight I Have To Leave It", Shout Out Louds

Tonight I Have To Leave it

Don't come up to me and say you like it.
It's better if you say you hate it, that's the truth exactly.
When we go out dancing I don't want to be bothered,
I just want to be bothered with real love.

So I heard it's no good to run,
but it feels so much better now that it's done
and tonight I have to leave it.

So I've heard you know how to write it,
does it mean you're good at putting things on paper?
Rumours say that you're very sorry.
Oh no you're not sorry, no you're not.

So I heard it's no good to run,
but it feels so much better now that it's done
and tonight I have to leave it.

Why don't you give love?
Why don't you give love?

Tonight I have to leave it.

O NOIVADO DO SEPULCRO

BALADA

Vai alta a lua! na mansão da morte
Já meia-noite com vagar soou;
Que paz tranquila; dos vaivéns da sorte
Só tem descanso quem ali baixou.

Que paz tranquila!... mas eis longe, ao longe
Funérea campa com fragor rangeu;
Branco fantasma semelhante a um monge,
D'entre os sepulcros a cabeça ergueu.


Ergueu-se, ergueu-se!... na amplidão celeste
Campeia a lua com sinistra luz;
O vento geme no feral cipreste,
O mocho pia na marmórea cruz.

Ergueu-se, ergueu-se!... com sombrio espanto
Olhou em roda... não achou ninguém...
Por entre as campas, arrastando o manto,
Com lentos passos caminhou além.

Chegando perto duma cruz alçada,
Que entre ciprestes alvejava ao fim,
Parou, sentou-se e com a voz magoada
Os ecos tristes acordou assim:

"Mulher formosa, que adorei na vida,
"E que na tumba não cessei d'amar,
"Por que atraiçoas, desleal, mentida,
"O amor eterno que te ouvi jurar?

"Amor! engano que na campa finda,
"Que a morte despe da ilusão falaz:
"Quem d'entre os vivos se lembrara ainda
"Do pobre morto que na terra jaz?

"Abandonado neste chão repousa
"Há já três dias, e não vens aqui...
"Ai, quão pesada me tem sido a lousa
"Sobre este peito que bateu por ti!

"Ai, quão pesada me tem sido!" e em meio,
A fronte exausta lhe pendeu na mão,
E entre soluços arrancou do seio
Fundo suspiro de cruel paixão.

"Talvez que rindo dos protestos nossos,
"Gozes com outro d'infernal prazer;
"E o olvido cobrirá meus ossos
"Na fria terra sem vingança ter!

- "Oh nunca, nunca!" de saudade infinda
Responde um eco suspirando além...
- "Oh nunca, nunca!" repetiu ainda
Formosa virgem que em seus braços tem.

Cobrem-lhe as formas divinas, airosas,
Longas roupagens de nevada cor;
Singela c'roa de virgínias rosas
Lhe cerca a fronte dum mortal palor.

"Não, não perdeste meu amor jurado:
"Vês este peito? reina a morte aqui...
"É já sem forças, ai de mim, gelado,
"Mas inda pulsa com amor por ti.

"Feliz que pude acompanhar-te ao fundo
"Da sepultura, sucumbindo à dor:
"Deixei a vida... que importava o mundo,
"O mundo em trevas sem a luz do amor?

"Saudosa ao longe vês no céu a lua?
- "Oh vejo sim... recordação fatal!
- "Foi à luz dela que jurei ser tua
"Durante a vida, e na mansão final.

"Oh vem! se nunca te cingi ao peito,
"Hoje o sepulcro nos reúne enfim...
"Quero o repouso de teu frio leito,
"Quero-te unido para sempre a mim!"

E ao som dos pios do cantor funéreo,
E à luz da lua de sinistro alvor,
Junto ao cruzeiro, sepulcral mistério
Foi celebrada, d'infeliz amor.

Quando risonho despontava o dia,
Já desse drama nada havia então,
Mais que uma tumba funeral vazia,
Quebrada a lousa por ignota mão.

Porém mais tarde, quando foi volvido
Das sepulturas o gelado pó,
Dois esqueletos, um ao outro unido,
Foram achados num sepulcro só.

Tributo - "I Know I'll never love this way again", Dionne Warwick (1979)

O Filme, donde foram retiradas estas imagens, é "P.S. I love You",com Gerard Butler & Hillary Swank.

You looked inside my fantasies
And made each one come true
Something no one else had ever found a way to do
I've kept the mem'ries one by one
Since you took me in
I know I'll never love this way again

I know I'll never love this way again
So I keep holdin' on
Before the good is gone
I know I'll never love this way again
Hold on, hold on, hold on

A fool will lose tomorrow
Reaching back for yesterday
I won't turn my head in sorrow
If you should go away
I'll stand here and remember
Just how good it's been
And I know I'll never love this way again

I know I'll never love this way again
So I keep holdin' on before the good is gone
I know I'll never love this way again
Hold on, hold on, hold on

I know I'll never love this way again
So I keep holdin' on
Before the good is gone
I know I'll never love this way again
Hold on, hold on

I know I'll never love this way again
So I keep holdin' on
Before the good is gone
I know I'll never love this way again
Hold on

"Amor", Heróis do Mar (1982)

Ai este caminho em flor
Cheio de sol
Perfumado com o nosso amor

Quando a tua mão e a minha
Trocam doçuras
No calor eterno de ternuras

Ó amor não me mataste o desejo
Ó amor com o teu primeiro beijo
Ó amor não me mataste o desejo
Ó amor com o teu primeiro beijo

Quando a tua mão e a minha
Trocam delícias
No calor eterno de carícias

Ó amor não me mataste o desejo
Ó amor com o teu primeiro beijo
Ó amor não me mataste o desejo
Ó amor com o teu primeiro beijo

"A Paixão (Segundo Nicolau da Viola)", Rui Veloso

Tu eras aquela que eu mais queria
P'ra me dar algum conforto e companhia
Era só contigo que eu sonhava andar
P'ra todo o lado e até quem sabe?
Talvez casar

Ai o que eu passei, só por te amar
A saliva que eu gastei para te mudar
Mas esse teu mundo era mais forte do que eu
E nem com a forca da musica ele se moveu

Refrão:
Mesmo sabendo que não gostavas
Empenhei o meu anel de rubi
Para te levar ao concerto
Que havia no Rivoli

Era só a ti que eu mais queria
Ao meu lado no concerto nesse dia
Juntos no escuro de mão dada a ouvir
Aquela musica maluca sempre a subir

Mas tu não ficaste nem meia-hora
Não fizeste um esforço p'ra gostar e foste embora
Contigo aprendi uma grande lição
Não se ama alguém que não ouve a mesma canção

Refrão

Foi nesse dia que percebi
Nada mais por nós havia a fazer
A minha paixão por ti era um lume
Que não tinha mais lenha por onde arder

Refrão

"Porto Sentido", Rui Veloso/Carlos Tê

"Every breath you take",The police

Every breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
And every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay
I'll be watching you

Oh, can't you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night, I can only see your face
I look around, but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold, and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby please,
Oh, can't you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Every move you make, every step you take
I'll be watching you
I'll be watching you

"Missing You", Alison Krauss & John Waite

Every time I think of you
I always catch my breath
And I’m still standing here
And you’re miles away
And I’m wondering why you left
And there’s a storm that’s raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name in certain circles
And it always makes me smile
I spend my time
Thinking about you
And it's almost driving me wild
And there’s a heart that’s breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I ain’t missing you at all
Since you’ve been gone
Away
I ain’t missing you
No matter
What I might say
There’s a message
In the wild
And I’m sending you
This signal tonight
You don’t know
How desperate I’ve become
And it looks like I’m losing this fight
In your world
I have no meaning
Though I’m trying hard
To understand
And it's my heart that’s breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I ain’t missing you at all
Since you’ve been gone
Away
I ain’t missing you
No matter
What my friends say
And there’s a message that I’m sending out
Like a telegraph to your soul
And if I can't bridge this distance
Stop this heartbreak overload
I ain’t missing you at all
Since you’ve been gone
Away
I ain’t missing you
No matter
What my friends say
I ain’t missing you
I ain’t missing you
I keep lying to myself
And there’s a storm that’s raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I ain’t missing you at all
Since you’ve been gone
Away
I ain’t missing you
No matter
What my friends say
Ain’t missing you
I ain’t missing you
I ain’t missing you
I keep lying to myself
Ain’t missing you
I aint missing you
I ain’t missing you
I ain’t missing you
I ain’t missing you
I ain’t missing you
Ain’t missing you
Oh no
No matter what my friends might say
I ain’t missing you

"Estou Além", António Variações

Não consigo dominar
Este estado de ansiedade
A pressa de chegar
P’ra não chegar tarde
Não sei de que é que eu fujo
Será desta solidão
Mas porque é que eu recuso
Quem quer dar-me a mão

Vou continuar a procurar a quem eu me quero dar
Porque até aqui eu só

Quero quem
Quem eu nunca vi
Porque eu só quero quem
Quem não conheci
Porque eu só quero quem
Quem eu nunca vi
Porque eu só quero quem
Quem não conheci
Porque eu só quero quem
Quem eu nunca vi



Esta insatisfação
Não consigo compreender
Sempre esta sensação
Que estou a perder
Tenho pressa de sair
Quero sentir ao chegar
Vontade de partir
P’ra outro lugar

Vou continuar a procurar o meu mundo, o meu lugar
Porque até aqui eu só

Estou bem
Aonde não estou
Porque eu só estou bem
Aonde eu não vou
Porque eu só estou bem
Aonde não estou
Porque eu só estou bem
Aonde não vou
Porque eu só estou bem
Aonde não estou



(letra e música de António Variações)

"Beautiful", Christina Aguilera

(Spoken)
Don't look at me

Every day is so wonderful
And suddenly, I saw debris
Now and then, I get insecure
From all the pain, I'm so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down
So don't you bring me down today

To all your friends, you're delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Trying hard to fill the emptiness
The piece is gone left the puzzle undone
That's the way it is

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring you down
Don't you bring me down today...

No matter what we do
(no matter what we do)
No matter what they say
(no matter what they say)
When the sun is shining through
Then the clouds won't stay


And everywhere we go
(everywhere we go)
The sun won't always shine
(sun won't always shine)
But tomorrow will find a way
All the other times

'cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words won't bring us down, oh no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring us down
Don't you bring me down today

Don't you bring me down today
Don't you bring me down today

"Easy", Faith no more

Know it sounds funny
But, I just can't stand the pain
Girl, I'm leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me girl
You know I've done all I can
You see I begged, stole, and I borrowed! (yeah)
Ooh that's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning!
Why in the world would anybody put chains on me?
I've paid my dues to make it
Everybody wants me to be
What they want me to be
I'm not happy when I try to fake it! no!
Ooh that's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning!
I wanna be high, so high
I wanna be free to know
The things I do are right
I wanna be free
Just me! Whoa, oh! Babe!
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning, yeah
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning, whoa
'Cause I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning, yeah
'Cause I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning

Lionel Richie

"Sit down", James (1989) - legendado

I sing myself to sleep
A song from the darkest hour
Secrets I can’t keep
Inside of the day
Swing from high to deep
Extremes of sweet and sour
Hope that God exists
I hope I pray

Drawn by the undertow
My life is out of control
I believe this wave will bear my weight
So let it flow

Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, down
In sympathy

Now I’m relieved to hear
That you’ve been to some far out places
It’s hard to carry on
When you feel all alone
Now I’ve swung back down again
It’s worse than it was before
If I hadn’t seen such riches
I could live with being poor

Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, down
In sympathy

Those who feel the breath of sadness
Sit down next to me
Those who find they’re touched by madness
Sit down next to me
Those who find themselves ridiculous
Sit down next to me
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
In love, in fear, in hate

Down
Down

Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, down
In sympathy

Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, down
In sympathy

"Trova do Vento que Passa", Adriano Correia de Oliveira/Manuel Alegre

Trova do vento que passa

Pergunto ao vento que passa
notícias do meu país
e o vento cala a desgraça
o vento nada me diz.

Pergunto aos rios que levam
tanto sonho à flor das águas
e os rios não me sossegam
levam sonhos deixam mágoas.

Levam sonhos deixam mágoas
ai rios do meu país
minha pátria à flor das águas
para onde vais? Ninguém diz.

Se o verde trevo desfolhas
pede notícias e diz
ao trevo de quatro folhas
que morro por meu país.

Pergunto à gente que passa
por que vai de olhos no chão.
Silêncio -- é tudo o que tem
quem vive na servidão.

Vi florir os verdes ramos
direitos e ao céu voltados.
E a quem gosta de ter amos
vi sempre os ombros curvados.

E o vento não me diz nada
ninguém diz nada de novo.
Vi minha pátria pregada
nos braços em cruz do povo.

Vi minha pátria na margem
dos rios que vão pró mar
como quem ama a viagem
mas tem sempre de ficar.

Vi navios a partir
(minha pátria à flor das águas)
vi minha pátria florir
(verdes folhas verdes mágoas).

Há quem te queira ignorada
e fale pátria em teu nome.
Eu vi-te crucificada
nos braços negros da fome.

E o vento não me diz nada
só o silêncio persiste.
Vi minha pátria parada
à beira de um rio triste.

Ninguém diz nada de novo
se notícias vou pedindo
nas mãos vazias do povo
vi minha pátria florindo.

E a noite cresce por dentro
dos homens do meu país.
Peço notícias ao vento
e o vento nada me diz.

Quatro folhas tem o trevo
liberdade quatro sílabas.
Não sabem ler é verdade
aqueles p’ra quem eu escrevo.

Mas há sempre uma candeia
dentro da própria desgraça
há sempre alguém que semeia
canções no vento que passa.

Mesmo na noite mais triste
em tempo de servidão
há sempre alguém que resiste
há sempre alguém que diz não.

Manuel Alegre

"99 Luftballons", Nena

Versão original, 1983 (alemã)

Hast Du etwas Zeit für mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Denkst Du vielleicht grad' an mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Und dass sowas von sowas kommt

99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Hielt man für UFOs aus dem All
Darum schickte ein General
Eine Fliegerstaffel hinterher
Alarm zu geben, wenn es so war
Dabei war da am Horizont
Nur 99 Luftballons

99 Duesenjaeger
Jeder war ein grosser Krieger
Hielten sich für Captain Kirk
Das gab ein grosses Feuerwerk
Die Nachbarn haben nichts gerafft
Und fühlten sich gleich angemacht
Dabei schoss man am Horizont
Auf 99 Luftballons

99 Kriegsminister
Streichholz und Benzinkanister
Hielten sich fuer schlaue Leute
Witterten schon fette Beute
Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht
Mann, wer haette das gedacht
Dass es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 Luftballons

99 Jahre Krieg
Liessen keinen Platz fuer Sieger
Kriegsminister gibt es nicht mehr
Und auch keine Duesenflieger
Heute zieh ich meine Runden
Seh die Welt in Truemmern liegen
Hab' nen Luftballon gefunden
Denk' an Dich und lass' ihn fliegen



Versão inglesa (1984)

You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got.
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone.
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, Something's out there.
Floating in the summer sky.
99 red balloons go by.

99 red balloons.
floating in the summer sky.
Panic bells, it's red alert.
There's something here from somewhere else.
The war machine springs to life.
Opens up one eager eye.
Focusing it on the sky.
Where 99 red balloons go by.

99 Decision Street.
99 ministers meet.
To worry, worry, super-scurry.
Call the troops out in a hurry.
This is what we've waited for.
This is it boys, this is war.
The president is on the line
As 99 red balloons go by.

99 Knights of the air
Ride super-high-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a superhero.
Everyone's a Captain Kirk.
With orders to identify.
To clarify and classify.
Scramble in the summer sky.
As 99 red balloons go by.

99 dreams I have had.
In every one a red balloon.
It's all over and I'm standing pretty.
In this dust that was a city.
If I could find a souvenier.
Just to prove the world was here.
And here is a red balloon
I think of you and let it go.

"Tell it to my heart", Taylor Dane/CSI: Miami (Adam Rodriguez & Jonathan Togo)

I feel the night explode when we're together.
Emotion overload in the heat of pleasure.
Take me I'm yours into your arms.
Never let me go.
Tonight I really need to know.

Tell it to my heart.
Tell me I'm the only one.
Is this really love or just a game?
Tell it to my heart.
I can feel my body rock every time you call my name.

The passion's so complete. It's neverending.
As long as I receive, the message you're sending.
Body to body, soul to soul
Always feel you near.
So say the words I long to hear.

Tell it to my heart.
Tell me I'm the only one.
Is this really love or just a game?
Tell it to my heart.
I can feel my body rock every time you call my name.

Love, love on the run, breaking us down,
Though we keep holding one.
I don't want to lose, no I can't let you go.

Tell it to my heart.
Tell me I'm the only one.
Is this really love or just a game?
Tell it to my heart.
I can feel my body rock every time you call my name.

Tell it to my heart. Tell me from the start. Tell it to my heart.
Tell it to my heart. Tell me from the start. Tell it to my heart.
Never make it stop. Oh, take it to the heart.

Tell it to my heart

"Iris", Avril Lavigne & Goo Goo Dolls (tradução)

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now


And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
Chorus

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am


And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

Chorus

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
Chorus

I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

"How can I go on?", Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballet (tradução)

How can I go on
How can I go on
This away
When all the salt
Is taken from the sea
I stand dethroned
I’m naked and I bleed
But when your finger
Points so savagely
Is anybody there
To believe in me
To hear my plea
And take care of me?
How can I go on
From day to day
Who can make me strong
In every way
Where can I be safe
Where can I belong
In this great big world
Of sadness
How can I forget
Those beautiful dreams
That we shared
They’re lost and they’re
No where to be found
How can I go on?
Sometimes I tremble
Over in the dark
I cannot see
When people frighten me
I try to hide myself
So far from the crowd
Is anybody there
To comfort me
Lord... to hear my plea
Take care of me
How can I go on
From day to day
Who can make me strong
In every way
Where can I be safe
Where can I belong
In this great big world
Of sadness
How can I forget
Those beautiful dreams
That we shared
They’re lost and they’re
No where to be found
How can I go on? (3x)

"Posso ter defeitos", Fernando Pessoa

“Posso ter defeitos, viver ansioso e ficar irritado algumas vezes, mas não esqueço de que minha vida é a maior empresa do mundo. E que posso evitar que ela vá à falência.
Ser feliz é reconhecer que vale a pena viver, apesar de todos os desafios, incompreensões e períodos de crise.
Ser feliz é deixar de ser vítima dos problemas e se tornar um autor da própria história.
É atravessar desertos fora de si, mas ser capaz de encontrar um oásis no recôndito da sua alma.
É agradecer a Deus a cada manhã pelo milagre da vida.
Ser feliz é não ter medo dos próprios sentimentos.
É saber falar de si mesmo.
É ter coragem para ouvir um não. É ter segurança para receber uma crítica, mesmo que injusta.

Guardo todas, um dia vou construir um castelo...”

Cão passageiro, cão estreito,
cão rasteiro cor de luva amarela,
apara-lápis, fraldiqueiro,
cão liquefeito, cão estafado,
cão de gravata pendente,
cão de orelhas engomadas,
de remexido rabo ausente,
cão ululante, cão coruscante,
cão magro, tétrico, maldito,
a desfazer-se num ganido,
a refazer-se num latido,
cão disparado: cão aqui,
cão além, e sempre cão.
Cão amarrado, preso por um fio de cheiro,
cão a esburgar o osso
essencial do dia-a-dia,
cão estouvado de alegria,
cão formal da poesia,
cão-soneto de ão-ão bem martelado,
cão moído de pancada
e condoído do dono
cão: esfera do sono,
cão de pura invenção, cão prefabricado,
cão espelho, cão cinzeiro, cão botija,
cão de olhos que afligem,
cão-problema...

Sai depressa, ó cão, deste poema!

Tenho muito orgulho em que tenha sido português!...Descanse em paz, Senhor Cônsul! Obrigado!

Sem populismo, eis um bom exemplo de divulgação de símbolos nacionais.
Quando surgirá um político visionário, suficientemente forte e competente, que empurre o nosso país rumo à prosperidade?...

"Oito anos", Adriana Calcanhoto

Tanta doçura!...

"Nessun Dorma", Giacomo Puccini

(EM ITALIANO)
Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
Tu pure, o, Principessa,
nella tua fredda stanza,
guardi le stelle
che fremono d'amore
e di speranza.

Ma il mio mistero e chiuso in me,
il nome mio nessun sapra!
No, no, sulla tua bocca lo diro
quando la luce splendera!

Ed il mio bacio sciogliera il silenzio
che ti fa mia!

(Il nome suo nessun sapra!...
e noi dovrem, ahime, morir!)

Dilegua, o notte!
Tramontate, stelle!
Tramontate, stelle!
All'alba vincero!
vincero, vincero!


(EM INGLÊS)
None must sleep! None must sleep!
And you, too, Princess,
in your cold room,
gaze at the stars
which tremble with love
and hope!

But my mystery is locked within me,
no-one shall know my name!
No, no, I shall say it as my mouth
meets yours when the dawn is breaking!

And my kiss will break the silence
which makes you mine!

(No-one shall know his name,
and we, alas, shall die!)

Vanish, o night!
Fade, stars!
At dawn I shall win



Paul Potts cantando uma das composições mais belas de sempre...
Quanto talento!... Quanta humildade!... Inacreditável!....

O Homem do Leme

O Mostrengo

O mostrengo que está no fundo do mar
Na noite de breu ergueu-se a voar;
À roda da nau voou três vezes,
Voou três vezes a chiar,

E disse: "Quem é que ousou entrar
Nas minhas cavernas que não desvendo,
Meus tectos negros do fim do mundo?"
E o homem do leme disse, tremendo:

"El-Rei D. João Segundo!"
"De quem são as velas onde me roço?
De quem as quilhas que vejo e ouço?"
Disse o mostrengo, e rodou três vezes,

Três vezes rodou imundo e grosso.
"Quem vem poder o que só eu posso,
Que moro onde nunca ninguém me visse
E escorro os medos do mar sem fundo?"

E o homem do leme tremeu, e disse:
"El-Rei D. João Segundo!"
Três vezes do leme as mãos ergueu,
Três vezes ao leme as reprendeu,

E disse no fim de tremer três vezes:
"Aqui ao leme sou mais do que eu:
Sou um Povo que quer o mar que é teu;
E mais que o mostrengo, que me a alma teme

E roda nas trevas do fim do mundo,
Manda a vontade, que me ata ao leme,
De El-Rei D. João Segundo!"

Fernando Pessoa, “Mensagem”

"No fundo do Mar"

Fundo do Mar

No fundo do mar há brancos pavores,
Onde as plantas são animais
E os animais são flores.

Mundo silencioso que não atinge
A agitação das ondas.
Abrem-se rindo conchas redondas,
Baloiça o cavalo-marinho.
Um polvo avança
No desalinho
Dos seus mil braços,
Uma flor dança,
Sem ruído vibram os espaços.

Sobre a areia o tempo poisa
Leve como um lenço.

Mas por mais bela que seja cada coisa
Tem um monstro em si suspenso.

Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen

"O Menino da sua Mãe", Fernando Pessoa

No plaino abandonado
Que a morna brisa aquece,
De balas trespassado
- Duas, de lado a lado –
Jaz morto, e arrefece.

Raia-lhe a farda o sangue
De braços estendidos,
Alvo, louro, exangue,
Fita com olhar langue
E cego os céus perdidos.

Tão jovem! Que jovem era!
(Agora que idade tem?)
Filho único, a mãe lhe dera
Um nome e o mantivera:
«O menino da sua mãe».

Caiu-lhe da algibeira
A cigarreira breve.
Dera-lha a mãe. Está inteira
E boa a cigarreira.
Ele é que já não serve.

De outra algibeira, alada
Ponta a roçar o solo,
A brancura embainhada
De um lenço... Deu-lho a criada
Velha que o trouxe ao colo.

Lá longe, em casa, há a prece:
«Que volte cedo, e bem! »
(Malhas que o Império tece!)
Jaz morto, e apodrece,
O menino da sua mãe.


Fernando Pessoa

"Gatos", Eugénio de Andrade

Gato dos quintais,
gato dos portões,
gato dos quartéis
gato das pensões.

Vêm da Índia, da Pérsia,
de Ninive, Alexandria.
Vêm do lado da noite,
Do oiro e rosa do dia.

Gato das duquesas,
gato das meninas,
gato das viúvas,
gato das ruínas.

Gatos e gatos e gatos.
Arre, que já estamos fartos!

Eugénio de Andrade

"All I Want to do is Make Love to You", Heart

All I Want to Do is Make Love to You

It was a rainy night
When he came into sight,
Standing by the road,
No umbrella, no coat.
So I pulled up alongside
And I offered him a ride.
He accepted with a smile,
So we drove for a while.
I didn’t ask him his name,
This lonely boy in the rain.
Fate, tell me it’s right,
Is this love at first sight?
Please don’t make it wrong,
Just stay for the night.

All I wanna do is make love to you
Say you will
You want me too
All I wanna do is make love to you
I’ve got loving arms to hold on to

So we found this hotel,
It was a place I knew well
We made magic that night.
Oh, he did everything right
He brought the woman out of me,
So many times, easily
And in the morning when he woke all
I left him was a note
I told him
I am the flower you are the seed
We walked in the garden
We planted a tree
Don’t try to find me,
Please don’t you dare
Just live in my memory,
You’ll always be there

All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I wanna do is make love to you
I’ve got loving arms to hold on to

Oh, oooh, we made love
Love like strangers
All night long
We made love

Then it happened one day,
We came round the same way
You can imagine his surprise
When he saw his own eyes
I said please, please understand
I’m in love with another man
And what he couldn’t give me
Was the one little thing that you can

All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I wanna do is make love to you
Say you will, you want me too

All night long
All night long
All night long
All night long

"Minha Senhora de Mim", Teresa Horta

Minha senhora de mim

Comigo me desavim
minha senhora
de mim

sem ser dor ou ser cansaço
nem o corpo que disfarço

Comigo me desavim
minha senhora
de mim

nunca dizendo comigo
o amigo nos meus braços

Comigo me desavim
minha senhora
de mim

recusando o que é desfeito
no interior do meu peito

Maria Teresa Horta, Editorial Futura, 1974
