Brazil Brasil Brasi

Pan pan pan pan pan

    oh tasteful fish ...

    superb cheese
    from my country...

     Muié embroiderer ...
     Percata espadrille, doublet
     all the best
     from my backlands ...!

     Look at the drizzle,
     what a lovely rain ...
      life that flies ...
      All success,
       all the progress
       of this nation.

        In this school
        born sambão ...

        in the immense west

        Rural Brazil ...!

        
          Hey Canindé ...

           Hey Tuiuiu
           Icaraí ...
          It's all here ...

A great language poem Alkas. I started feeling hungry for cheese. But please explain the title because I think I over thought it. Brazil of course your country. Brasil in Portuguese "a burning ember". But brasi to me is quasi Italian for "god father"? Have I mistranslated the title and your meaning Alkas???
