Portuguese to English: O Riacho (fragmentos) / The Brook (fragments) General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - Portuguese Adilson Costa Nasce a água da terra, limpa cristalina Nasce no topo da serra, pura e alcalina Desce sua ladeira Vai crescendo Arrastando Quebrando Não teme os obstáculos e vai Passa sobre tudo e cresce Fica grande, não tem medo Esquece o topo da serra Aquela que tinha gosto de terra Terra pura, terra limpa em meio ao arvoredo. Aumenta a velocidade, corre e vai descendo. (...) o riacho vai encontrar o que merece Quando a ladeira terminar, Aos poucos ele desaparece. Será engolido pelo mar.	Translation - English Adilson Costa Water rises from the earth, crystal clear Springing at the top of the mountain, alkaline and pure Comes down its slope Keeps growing Dragging Shattering Not fearing the barriers, it goes Passing on everything, it grows It becomes large, it has no fear It forgets the top of the ridge The one that tasted like dirt Pure land, clear land amid the trees. Its speed increases, it runs and goes down. (...) the brook will find what it deserves When the slope comes to an end, It will gradually disappear. It shall be swallowed by sea.

Source text - Portuguese Renato Sêneca Fleury Perguntei ao céu tão lindo, — Por que é todo cor de anil? Ele me disse, sorrindo: — Eu sou o céu do Brasil! Perguntei ao Sol, então, A causa de tanta luz. — Sou a glorificação Da Terra de Santa Cruz! Depois perguntei à Lua: — Por que noites de luar? — É para enfeitar a tua Grande Pátria à beira-mar. Perguntei às claras fontes: — Por que correis sem cessar? — Nós brotamos destes montes Para a terra fecundar! Então eu disse à floresta: — És tão bela, verde inteira! Ela respondeu em festa: — Sou a mata brasileira! Perguntei depois às aves: — Por que estais a cantar? — Cantamos canções suaves Para tua Pátria saudar. Céu e sol, luar e cantos, Florestas e fontes mil Enchem de eternos encantos És minha Pátria, — o Brasil!	Translation - English Renato Sêneca Fleury I asked to the sky so beautiful, - Why are you so indigo? It told me, with a smile: - I am the sky of Brazil! Then I asked to the Sun, About the cause of so much light. - I am the glorification Of Terra de Santa Cruz! After that I asked to the Moon: – Why moonlit nights? - It is in order to adorn your Great seaside Homeland. I asked to the clear springs: - Why don’t thou ever stop? - We spring from these mountains To fecundate the land! So I said to the forest: - Thou art so beautiful, whole green! Partying, it replied: - I am the Brazilian woods! Then I asked to the birds: - Why do thou sing? - We sing soothing songs To salute your Homeland. Sky and sunshine, moonlight and songs, A thousand forests and springs Fill with eternal charms Thou art may Homeland, Brazil!
Portuguese to English: Gota d'água / Drop of water General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - Portuguese Emilio de Menezes Olha a paisagem que enlevado estudo!... Olha este céu no centro! olha esta mata E este horizonte ao lado! olha este rudo Aspecto da montanha e da cascata!... E o teu perfil aqui sereno e mudo! Todo este quadro que a alma me arrebata, Todo o infinito que nos cerca, tudo! D'água esta gota ao mínimo retrata!... Chega-te mais! Deixa lá fora o mundo! Vê o firmamento sobre nós baixando; Vê de que luz suavíssima me inundo!... Vai teus braços, aos meus, entrelaçando, Beija-me assim! vê deste azul no fundo, Os nossos olhos mudos nos olhando!...	Translation - English Emilio de Menezes Look at the landscape which I study astonished! Look at this sky in the middle! look at these woods And this horizon beside! look at this rude Aspect of the mountain and the cascade!... And thy serene and silent shape in here! This entire scenario that snatches my soul, All the infinite around us, everything! This drop at least portrays the water!... Come closer! Leave the world outside! See the firmament going down on us; See the gentlest light which overflows on me!... Your arms go towards mine, entwining, Kiss me this way! see deep in this blue, Our speechless eyes watching us!...
Portuguese to English: Levantados do Chão / Risen from the Ground General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - Portuguese Chico Buarque Como então? Desgarrados da terra? Como assim? Levantados do chão? Como embaixo dos pés uma terra Como água escorrendo da mão? Como em sonho correr numa estrada? Deslizando no mesmo lugar? Como em sonho perder a passada E no oco da Terra tombar? Como então? Desgarrados da terra? Como assim? Levantados do chão? Ou na planta dos pés uma terra Como água na palma da mão? Habitar uma lama sem fundo? Como em cama de pó se deitar? Num balanço de rede sem rede Ver o mundo de pernas pro ar? Como assim? Levitante colono? Pasto aéreo? Celeste curral? Um rebanho nas nuvens? Mas como? Boi alado? Alazão sideral? Que esquisita lavoura! Mas como? Um arado no espaço? Será? Choverá que laranja? Que pomo? Gomo? Sumo? Granizo? Maná?	Translation - English Chico Buarque So how? Stray from the land? So how? Raised from the ground? Like land under the feet Like water dripping from the hand? Like running on a road in a dream? Slipping in the same place? Like losing the step in a dream And tumbling in the void of the Earth? So how? Stray from the land? So how? Raised from the ground? Or land in the sole of the feet Like water in the palm of your hand? Inhabit a bottomless mud? Like lying on a bed of dust? Balancing on a hammock without a hammock Watch the world putting my feet up? So how? Levitating settler? Overhead pasture? Heavenly stockyard? A herd in the clouds? But how? Flying ox? Sidereal chestnut horse? What a weird harvest! But how? A plow in space? Is it? What kind of an orange will rain down? What kind of a snitch? Pulp? Juice? Hail? Manna?

Source text - Portuguese Cecília Meireles A vastidão desses campos. A alta muralha das serras. As lavras inchadas de ouro. Os diamantes entre as pedras. Negros, índios e mulatos. Almocrafes e gamelas. Os rios todos virados. Toda revirada, a terra. Capitães, governadores, padres intendentes, poetas. Carros, liteiras douradas, cavalos de crina aberta. A água a transbordar das fontes. Altares cheios de velas. Cavalhadas. Luminárias. Sinos, procissões, promessas. Anjos e santos nascendo em mãos de gangrena e lepra. Finas músicas broslando as alfaias das capelas. Todos os sonhos barrocos deslizando pelas pedras. Pátios de seixos. Escadas. Boticas. Pontes. Conversas. Gente que chega e que passa. E as idéias.	Translation - English Cecília Meireles The wilderness of these fields. The high wall of the ridges. The minings swollen of gold. The diamonds among the stones. Blacks, indians and mulattos. Mining pickaxes and troughs. The rivers all upside down. The ground, all rolled up. Captains, governors, intendant priests, poets. Cars, golden hand-barrows. horses with open horsehair. Water overflowing from the springs. Altars full of candles. Horse riding parades. Luminaries. Bells, processions, promises. Angels and saints being born in hands of gangrene and leprosy. Exquisite songs embroidering the implements of the chapels. All baroque dreams slipping by the stones. Courtyard of pebbles. Stairs. Pharmacies. Bridges. Conversation. People arriving and passing by. And the ideas.

Bio

I have been working with translation/proofreading since 1996, and as a freelancer since 2011, amounting to 18 years of experience as a language services provider.

My expertise is focused on law (agreements, opinions, powers of attorney), IT (hardware, software, games), pharmacy (clinical trials, brochures, opinions, CIOMS forms) and business, but I'm also interested in other fields (such as literature, HR, business, oil & gas, poetry).

I concluded an undergraduate course in Translation/Interpretation in 1997, and a graduate course in Strategic People Management in 2010.

My current prefered CAT tool is SDL Studio 2014.

I'm also able to use different CAT tools upon request.
