Quem passou pela vida em branca nuvem, E em plácido repouso adormeceu; Quem não sentiu o frio da desgraça; Quem passou pela vida e não sofreu; Foi espectro de homem, não foi homem — Só passou pela vida, não viveu.	Who passed through the life in a white cloud, And slept a peaceful sleep; Who did not feel the cold disgrace; Who passed through the life and did not suffer; Was the specter of a man, but not a man — He only passed through the life, but did not live it at all.
