Romã

Foi para ti que criei as rosas
Foi para ti que lhes dei perfume
Para ti rasguei ribeiros
e dei às romãs a cor do lume

For you I  created the roses                                             
For you I gave them a fragance
For you I ripped streams 
and gave to pomegranates its red color

                                                                                                                                   J'ai crée les roses pour toi 

                                                                                                                                   Je les ai parfumé pour toi 

                                                                                                                                   Pour toi j'ai déchiré les ruisseaux 

                                                                                                                                   Et j'ai donné aux grenades la couleur rouge
