Os Lusiadas

Canto Primeiro

Stanza 2

  • And also the glorious memories
  • E também as memórias gloriosas
  • Of those Kings, who were dilating
  • Daqueles Reis, que foram dilatando
  • The Faith, the Empire, and the Vicious Lands
  • A Fé, o Império, e as terras viciosas
  • From Africa and Asia they have been devastating;
  • De África e de Ásia andaram devastando;
  • And those, that by valiant works
  • E aqueles, que por obras valerosas
  • If they go from the law of death freeing;
  • Se vão da lei da morte libertando;
  • Singing I will spread everywhere,
  • Cantando espalharei por toda parte,
  • If so much help me the ingenuity and art.
  • Se a tanto me ajudar o engenho e arte.
