Ismália

When Ismália went madQuando Ismália enlouqueceu
She stood in the tower dreamingPôs-se na torre a sonhar
She saw a Moon in the skyViu uma Lua no céu
She saw another Moon in the seaViu outra Lua no mar

In the dream she got lostNo sonho em que se perdeu
She bathed completely in moonlightBanhou-se toda em luar
She wanted to climb to the skyQueria subir ao céu
She wanted to descend to the seaQueria descer ao mar

And in her deliriumE num desvario seu
On the tower she began to singNa torre pôs-se a cantar
She was close to the skyEstava perto do céu
She was far from the seaEstava longe do mar

And like an angel she leanedE como um anjo pendeu
Her wings to flyAs asas para voar
She wanted the Moon from the skyQueria a Lua do céu
She wanted the Moon from the seaQueria a Lua do mar

The wings that God gave herAs asas que Deus lhe deu
Flapped wide openRuflaram de par em par
Her soul rose to the skySua alma subiu ao céu
Her body descended to the seaSeu corpo desceu ao mar

Her soul rose to the skySua alma subiu ao céu
Her body descended to the seaSeu corpo desceu ao mar
Descended to the seaDesceu ao mar
