American dream
My great grandfather only wanted to go via Portugal
and then cross over the Atlantic.
But he had to settle for calling his first daughter America.
© Translated by Ana Hudson, 2010Sonho Americano
O meu bisavô queria apenas passar por Portugal
e depois atravessar o Atlântico.
Mas teve de se contentar com chamar América à primeira filha.
