Fragment of "Iracema"

Beyond, far beyond that mountain range, which is still blue on the horizon, Iracema was born. Iracema, the virgin with the honey lips, whose hair was blacker than the wing of the raven and longer than her carved palm. The jati comb was not sweet like her smile, nor did the vanilla scent the woods like her fragrant breath.

Faster than the wild rhea, the virgin brunette ran through the sertão and the forests of the Ipu, where her warrior tribe, from the great Tabajara nation, reigned. Her graceful, bare foot, barely grazing, only smoothed the plush green that covered the earth with the first waters.

One day, at sunrise, she was resting in a forest clearing. His body was bathed in the shadow of oiticica, fresher than the night's dew. The branches of the wild acacia spread flowers over the damp hairs. Hidden in the foliage, the birds softened the song.

José de Alencar, “Iracema”.
