Modinha
Manuel Bandeira
Por sobre a solidão do mar
A lua
Fluctua
E uma ternura singular
Palpita em cada coração.Só tu não vens trazer alivio ao trovador,
Que vai tangendo apaixonado
As cordas da triste lyra
Que suspira desmaiando.
Suplicando teu amor.
Eu te suplico
Te imploro
Te rogo
Prostado
Aos teus pés com fervor.
O teu sorriso de criança.
Vê, vou gemendo de dor,
E na esperança de um dia melhor
Unido a ti,
Tu és toda a fé que eu perdi!
Mostra o semblante seductor
Acalma
Minh'alma...
Concede ao menos a este amor
a doce esmola de te ver.
Que o coração tão infeliz por te adorar.
perdido embora de desejo,
Bem sabe que não merece
A maravilha de teu beijo,
E pede apenas um olhar!
