And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,

“Por esta solidão, que não consente
Nem do sol, nem da lua a claridade,
Ralado o peito pela saudade
Dou mil gemidos a Marília ausente:

De seus crimes a mancha inda recente
Lava Amor, e triunfa da verdade;
A beleza, apesar da falsidade,
Me ocupa o coração, me ocupa a mente:

Lembram-me aqueles olhos tentadores,
Aquelas mãos, aquele riso, aquela
Boca suave, que respira amores...

Ah! Trazei-me, ilusões, a ingrata, a bela!
Pintai-me vós, oh sonhos, entre as flores
Suspirando outra vez nos braços dela!”
― Manuel Maria Barbosa du Bocage

lovers betray.”
