O Guarani 21.74 · 21.74

Son of the sun

— Escuta, Peri é filho do sol; e renegava o sol se ele queimasse a pele alva de Ceci. Peri ama o vento; e odiava o vento se ele arrancasse um cabelo de ouro de Ceci. Peri gosta de ver o céu; e não levantava a vista, se ele fosse mais azul do que os olhos de Ceci.

The setting

— Listen, Peri is a son of the sun; and he would renounce the sun if it burned the white skin of Ceci. Peri loves the wind; and he would hate the wind if it tore a hair of gold from Ceci. Peri likes to see the sky; and he would not lift his gaze, if it were bluer than the eyes of Ceci.
