Meu Brasil é com S! (Portuguese)

Meu Brasil é com S.
S de samba, sorriso e saudade.

Sempre levando a vida,
Com dois dedinhos de prosa
E uma rede a beira do mar.

Porque não são todos que podem
Bater a mão no peito com orgulho
Brandar em alto e bom som
Que pertecem àquele que luta

Aquele que não larga um samba.
Que vive cheio de sorrisos.
Aquele que dá saudades.

Pátria amada Brasil.

    wow...i am portuguese also, and though i don't know enough to throw a decent sentence together, i could pretty well translate your words, and it thrilled me to read something written in a different language...you're extremely fluent. i love that. awesome write!!

    A wonderfully artistic expression in another language. I am portuguese myself and know only very little when it comes to speaking it. I did however pick up on a few words here and as Individuality, went to a translation site to fill in the parts I did not understand. I commend you greatly on the pride you take in your native land of Brasil. A unique piece indeed and one that is just written with a class all its own. Nicely Done!
