Lisboa, Menina e Moça

Lisboa Menina e Moça
No Castelo ponho um cotovelo
Em Alfama descanso o olhar
E assim desfaço o novelo
De azul e mar.

À Ribeira encosto a cabeça
Almofada na cama do Tejo
Com lençóis bordados à pressa
Na cambraia de um beijo.

Lisboa menina e moça, menina
Da luz que meus olhos vêem, tão pura
Teus seios são as colinas, varina
Pregão que me traz à porta, ternura.
Cidade a ponto-luz bordada
Toalha à beira-mar estendida
Lisboa menina e moça, amada
Cidade mulher da minha vida.

No Terreiro eu passo por ti
Mas da Graça eu vejo-te nua
Quando um pombo te olha sorri
És mulher da rua.

E no bairro mais alto do sonho
Ponho o fado que soube inventar
Aguardente de vida e medronho
Que me faz cantar.

These include the Largest Hockey Stick, a staggering 56 ft 7 in ( 17.25 m) long, the Largest Human Logo made up of 34,000 people (part of Portugal's successful bid to host the Euro 2004 soccer championships) and the Largest Football with a whopping diameter of 19 ft 10 in (6.06 m)! But the focus this time was once again on mass participation. The record attempt was part of a larger celebration organized by Banco Espirito Santo,...
