I was mistaken from many years thinking that this were anemones! Glad I took this picture :)

Day of Portugal

Today is celebrated the day of Portugal and Camões. I'm not a great patriot and I do not believe in heroes or things made by individuals. The great work of Camões, "os Lusíadas" is dedicated to the great things made by Portuguese heroes. However I chose a poem of Camões but about love.

Amor é fogo que arde sem se ver

Amor é fogo que arde sem se ver;
É ferida que dói e não se sente;
É um contentamento descontente;
É dor que desatina sem doer;

É um não querer mais que bem querer;
É solitário andar por entre a gente;
É nunca contentar-se de contente;
É cuidar que se ganha em se perder;

É querer estar preso por vontade;
É servir a quem vence, o vencedor;
É ter com quem nos mata lealdade.

Mas como causar pode seu favor
Nos corações humanos amizade,
Se tão contrário a si é o mesmo Amor?

Luís de Camões

Love is a fire that burns without being seen;
It's a wound that hurts without being felt;
It's an unhappy happiness;
It's a pain that drives you crazy without hurting;

It's a wishing no more for what you like;
It's walking lonely within a crowd;
It's never being contented with contentedness;
It's seeking to find oneself in losing oneself;

It's wishing to be a prisoner of wishes;
It's serving who you have overcome, you the victor;
It's being faithful to someone who kills us.

But how can its favour cause
friendliness in human hearts,
if love itself is so contrary to itself?

"o país de brandos costumes"

In a country of soft customs all protest and nobody does anything!

Moody weather!

It's so funny how weather can change so dramatically from sunny to heavy shower...


It is raining in Lisbon for two months already. Usually it rains about three days a year! The climate change have made the Lisbon people exchange their sandals for the umbrella, when it should be making about 30 ºC.
