Os Lusiadas

Canto Primeiro

Stanza 31

  • He had heard the Fates that
  • Ouvido tinha aos Fados que viria
  • A very strong people from Spain
  • Uma gente fortíssima de Espanha
  • By the high sea, which would subject
  • Pelo mar alto, a qual sujeitaria
  • From India everything that Doris bathes,
  • Da índia tudo quanto Dóris banha,
  • And with new victories would win
  • E com novas vitórias venceria
  • The old fame, or his, or it was strange.
  • A fama antiga, ou sua, ou fosse estranha.
  • Highly it hurts to lose the glory,
  • Altamente lhe dói perder a glória,
  • That Nisa celebrates her memory well.
  • De que Nisa celebra inda a memória.
