“Sonnet of Fidelity Above all to my love I'll be attentiveFirst and always with care and so muchThat even when facing the greatest enchantmentBy love be more enchanted my thoughts. I want to live it through in each vain momentAnd in its honor I'll spread my songAnd laugh my laughter and cry my tearsWhen you are sad or when you are content. And thus when later comes looking for meWho knows the death anxiety of the living Who knows the loneliness end of all lovers I'll be able to say to myself of the love I had :Be not immortal since it is flameBut be infinite while it lasts.”

Vinicius de Moraes
