by the sea

In front of the church Terreiro de Jesus
Three angels invited me,
Not to pray to God,
Not to wash my feet,
But to sit me in the pride,
In a bouquet of white dresses
And to laugh as the pure water
Which gobbles up my money,
5 reals for a photo among the angels,
I never could
Fly away from Salvador de Bahia.

And what else would you have bought with your five reals? Certainly nothing as lasting as the memory that developed this piece. I'd say it was worth the price.
