Ah, o Amor... [sonnet in honor of Camões]
 
  Amor é chama donde surge o ser
Enlouquecido tão completamente:
O pobre jura amar eternamente
Enquanto chora o próprio enlouquecer.

O tempo escoa; certo é perceber
Que o fogo arde mais intensamente
Conquanto novo, cego e eloqüente,
Porém é seu destino arrefecer.

Amar por toda a vasta eternidade
Não é possível: não co'aquele ardor
Que é inerente à fátua mocidade.

Camões cantou com similar fervor?
Talvez não tenha o visto de verdade,
Talvez nem tenha conhecido o Amor...

Lucianne Fasolo

I am ignorant of this language I have read Williams translation but I will await you translation. Poems tend to lose something by translation but given the beautyof the original meter I am content to wait. Ivor
