1 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,080 "This book, whose title is 'Pilgrimage

2 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:01,760 "by Fernão Mendes Pinto,

3 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,480 "there is nothing against our holy faith

4 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,600 "or good manners and guarding them.

5 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:11,800 "Before, it is very good history, full of much

variety and novelty,

6 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,040 "for which parts you must be very happy.

7 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,600 "Because novelty, as the philosopher says,

delights.

8 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,120 "And variety, as St. Augustine states,

9 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:22,440 takes the edge off."

10 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,480 Hail Mary, full of grace

11 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,000 Blessed are you among women

12 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,720 And blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.

13 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:03,680 What a thankless adventure I can only complain

about

14 00:03:03,920 --> 00:03:08,160 In the homeland there is little abundance

15 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:13,200 Full of sorrows Ai quebra-mar

16 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:18,560 With so many dangers Oh my life

17 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,960 With so many fears and upsets

18 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,560 That I'm already jumping

19 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,480 That I will run away

20 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,920 On the day that the King D. Manuel, the Fortunate,
was killed,

21 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,800 an uncle of mine took me from the poor and barren
lands to Lisbon,

22 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,960 where kings and great men were.

23 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,440 To find a trade that would bring me happiness,

fortune,

24 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,360 mercies and honors.

25 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,200 God grant us his divine mercy.

26 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,600 For if this is very beautiful, it is also

horrifying.
27 00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:57,280 It is more honorable to be a sailor on a ship,
than the boatswain on a tall ship.

28 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,320 That men may take reason not to be discouraged by
the toils of life,

29 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:04,440 because there are none,

30 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,360 however great they may be, with which human nature
cannot

31 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,720 helped by divine favor.

32 00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:13,440 And Mr. Fernão Mendes, why are you coming on this
adventure?

33 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:16,760 Mr. D. Pedro,

34 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,560 what is paid today in princes' houses

35 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,760 is not enough for my support.

36 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,280 I determined to embark on this career from India,

37 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,000 though with few illusions, willing for the whole
adventure,

38 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,280 bad or good, whatever happens to me.

39 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:29,640 That alone is not enough.

40 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,600 For those who are not sailors and are palace boys.

41 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,280 Well, Mr. D. Pedro, my captain,

42 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,160 is it true that a life-threatening case happened

to me

43 00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:43,480 and that, in order to save her,

44 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,000 I was forced to leave Lisbon at that very hour,

45 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:47,920 running away as fast as I could.

46 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:52,920 And can it be known?

47 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,640 I cannot, sir, tell you, I promised.

48 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,360 All I know is that I ran so far until I stopped at
the Stone Pier,

49 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,560 where I found a caravel with horses

50 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,960 and a nobleman's suits for Setubal.

51 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,080 Where, at that time,

52 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,200 El-Rei D. João III was guarded,

53 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,360 que Santa Glória haja, por causa da pesteeste que
havia em Lisboa

54 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,280 and in many places in the kingdom.

55 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,800 But taking care to escape from dangers, I went on
to find bigger ones.

56 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,480 Do you really like me?

57 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,200 You know it, ma'am.

58 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,240 What would you do for me, Fernão Mendes?

59 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:52,160 Everything, whatever His Lordship wants and

commands.

60 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,120 Without saying anything to anybody,

61 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,320 tomorrow you deliver this letter to D. Manuel

Freire,

62 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:03,840 the king's knight.

63 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,160 Yes, ma'am.

64 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:23,760 Francisco, my husband!

65 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,080 Go! Go! Run! He'll kill us!

66 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:06,520 It was sin was It was sin was

67 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,320 It was sin was It was sin was

68 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:16,080 It was sin was It was sin was

69 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:21,040 It was sin was It was sin was

70 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,320 It was sin

71 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:28,040 Not telling this hidden story

72 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:32,680 For serving as a servant to this lady

73 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,880 She also served herself so seductively

74 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:41,400 It was sin It was sin

75 00:08:42,560 --> 00:08:46,160 How good life was in Lisbon

76 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:47,680 It was sin It was sin

77 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,160 It was a sin It was a sin

78 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:54,800 It was sin was It was sin was

79 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,120 It was sin

80 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:02,200 I go to the awesome throne of the waters

81 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,120 I go in the tremendous blowing of the winds

82 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:11,040 I go over my thoughts

83 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,560 Creep Creep

84 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,920 Yes, it does creep

85 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,760 How good life was in Lisbon

86 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,600 Oh, what a good life!

87 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,080 Burp Burp

88 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,320 Burp Burp

89 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:37,440 What a good life it was in Lisbon

90 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,720 It took more than a year for this trip,

91 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:00,880 but praise our Lord

92 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,360 that all the ships were rescued,

93 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,880 not to Goa, but to the fortress of Diu,

94 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,800 on suspicion of the coming of the Turk's armada.

95 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,400 17 days only I stayed in the fortress of Diu.

96 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,520 Two fustas were about to go to the strait of

Mecca.

97 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,200 The captain of one of them showed me very easy

98 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,920 I leave the trip very rich,

99 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,800 which was what I wanted most.

100 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,320 More than anything.

101 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,600 In my early youth, I lived in such a state,

102 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,840 always in misery and poverty,

103 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,400 and not without some bumps and dangers of life.

104 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:47,640 And in the parts of India,

105 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,720 instead of the medicine I was going to get from
them,

106 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,640 I grew older with the jobs and dangers.

107 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,720 But I thank God, for always getting me out safe

108 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,480 and preserve life so that I could do this rough
109 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,400 and crude deed that I leave to my children by
inheritance.

110 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,880 Only for them is my intention to write it,

111 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,960 for them to see in it these works of mine

112 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,960 and dangers of life that I have gone through in
the course of 21 years.

113 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,880 In which he was 13 times captive

114 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:20,040 and 17 sold in parts of India, Ethiopia, Happy
Arabia,

115 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,800 China, Tatarstan, Macanar, Samatra and many other
provinces

116 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,640 from that eastern archipelago on the edge of
Asia,

117 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,280 to which the Chinese, Siamese, Echian, Guyanese
writers

118 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,600 name in their geographies by...

119 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,520 Pestana of the world.

120 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,480 My husband and lord,

121 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,720 more than eight years ago he returned from the
Indies.

122 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,440 Don't you think it is already late to count your
services?

123 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,040 Nobody wants to hear me, much less pay.

124 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:02,520 But you have to know.

125 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,040 I have to tell everything.

126 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:08,760 All!

127 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:17,640 Where do you come from?

128 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,160 From Judah, where I was born.

129 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:21,680 And the great armada?

130 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,400 Already departed Suez.

131 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:25,880 And go where?

132 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,000 Take Aden. Build a fortress, before attacking
India.

133 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,080 The Baxa of Cairo who comes as Captain-Major,
134 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,640 fulfilling the order sent to him by the Turk from
Constantinople,

135 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,240 will finish you all off, Portuguese!

136 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,320 You who speak like that, are you not Portuguese?

137 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,440 I am a renegade Christian.

138 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,520 Majorcan from Sardinia,

139 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,920 son of Paulo Andrés, the merchant.

140 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,520 It has been four years since I became a Moor,

141 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,440 for the love of a Greek Moor.

142 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,600 And you don't want to become a Christian again?

143 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:25,480 It felt like I was born

144 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,520 and always having been raised in that damned
sect.

145 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,360 Blind and senseless was this unfortunate
adventurer

146 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,680 in the knowledge of the holy catholic truth

147 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,200 that he was now told about.

148 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,480 He who had been a Christian so recently.

149 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:43,080 The captain was filled with anger, with holy zeal
for the honor of God.

150 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,280 The Turkish ship, with the most alive and dead,

151 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,520 was put in the background because the farm was a
bale of paint

152 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,960 of the kind of pastry that was of no use to us.

153 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,080 The soldiers took some pieces of chamalote to
dress themselves.

154 00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:10,360 In the lands of the mythical Preste João, whom
everyone respects, fears,

155 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:11,960 but which nobody sees,

156 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,440 this our ally in the war of Christendom against
the Turk,

157 00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:18,320 we were received by the princess, her mother,

158 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,520 who sent us into the chapel

159 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,040 where I was already prepared to hear the mass.
160 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,400 The coming of you other, true Christians,

161 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,640 is for me now so nice

162 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,080 and it was always so desirable

163 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,720 and is so at all times,

164 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,840 for these eyes of mine that I have on my face,

165 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:48,880 like the cool of the garden desires the cool of
the night.

166 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:56,200 Come in good time, come in good time.

167 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,520 And may your entrance into my house be at such a
good time

168 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:07,960 as Queen Helena's was in the Holy Land of
Jerusalem.

169 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,360 What is the name of the Holy Pope today?

170 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,040 How many kings are there in Christendom?

171 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:18,960 Why are the Portuguese so careless

172 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:20,880 on the destruction of the Turk?

173 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,360 The power that the King of Portugal has in India
is great.

174 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,240 How many forts are there in these lands?

175 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:36,200 He kept asking questions and we answered him as
best we could.

176 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,880 Nine days we lived with full honors in his
palace.

177 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,640 And when we finally said goodbye and kissed his
hands,

178 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,040 delivered the reply letter to the governor

179 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,600 and a chest full of gold.

180 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,720 May your people in India welcome you

181 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,960 how ancient King Solomon received the Queen of
Sheba

182 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,320 in the admirable house of its greatness.

183 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:09,120 To each of the four of us, he ordered us to give
20 gold pieces,

184 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,440 which is 240 crosses.

185 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,040 And a much richer present,

186 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,960 of many pieces of gold, for governor of India.

187 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,680 Beyond! Beyond!

188 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,600 Three Turkish ships, damn it!

189 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,600 The sea of burning waters The delirium of the
heavens

190 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,240 The Windward Fury

191 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,560 Trim the sail and go sailor to the helm

192 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,200 Turns the boat and falls sailor overboard

193 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:44,840 Turn the boat around the bend of death And look
at my luck, look at my bad luck

194 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,960 And after the boat capsized Great roars and
shouts

195 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,480 In the salvation of the afflicted

196 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,520 Snap, kill, grab Oh who can help me

197 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,720 Reza, implora, escapa Ai que pagode

198 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,360 Prayers tremble Heroes and eunuchs

199 00:16:58,480 --> 00:16:59,880 Are Moors are Turks

200 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,800 São mouros acode

201 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:18,760 There, in Moca, we landed the nine of us that
were left alive.

202 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:23,560 Even the women locked in the houses and the boys
threw us out of the windows

203 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,280 many pots of urine and insult and contempt of the
Christian name.

204 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,640 It was almost sunset when they put us in a
dungeon

205 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,840 under ground and in which we had 17 days

206 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,000 in the greatest misfortune and suffering.

207 00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:42,160 And one morning, two of the nine dawned dead,

208 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,440 one named Nuno Delgado and the other André
Borges,

209 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,720 who were wounded with deep blows to the head.
210 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,440 It was November 6, 1538.

211 00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,040 For my part, I was put up for auction and bought
by a renegade Greek,

212 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,760 the most inhuman and cruel enemy the world has
ever seen.

213 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:05,960 I was tempted to kill myself with venom,

214 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,520 but Our Lord was kind enough to stop it.

215 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,680 Many days after this suffering of mine,

216 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,560 a Jew named Abraão Murça, from Toro,

217 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,040 two and a half leagues from Mount Sinai, bought
me from the Greek,

218 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:21,640 in exchange for a huge quantity of dates worth 12
thousand reis

219 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:23,960 and took me with him to Hormuz.

220 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,800 I was young and robust, there was nothing to
break me,

221 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,080 but I gave many praises to our Lord

222 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,840 for the mercy of staying alive

223 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,520 and, 16 days later, I embarked for India

224 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,320 on a ship carrying horses to Goa.

225 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,320 Stories, so many stories.

226 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,560 True! As true as me being here.

227 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,680 It took me more than a month to heal my wounds

228 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,000 that tore through my whole body.

229 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,760 Francisco Andrade, managed.

230 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,160 Your Highness, King Dom Sebastian, will you
receive me?

231 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:07,800 Easy, not now.

232 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,240 He hasn't finished listening to Luis Vaz and is
very excited.

233 00:19:11,360 --> 00:19:13,520 Camões!

234 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:15,400 But what truth is there in poems?

235 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:19,200 The Lusiads, sir, the wonderful epic of Gama.
236 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,400 Fables, inventions.

237 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,600 And his unmeasured reports are true...

238 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,520 As sure as I am here.

239 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,440 It's so hard to believe.

240 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,960 Como fiquei assaz curado, D. Garcia de Noronha,

241 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,080 the Lord Viceroy of India, ordered me to leave
Goa for Malacca

242 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,520 to serve his captain Dom Pêro Faria,

243 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,240 that he was an honorable nobleman and that he
would give me all his friendship

244 00:19:58,360 --> 00:20:01,160 and also honors and profits.

245 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:37,400 Greedy more than all the men in the Lion's
service,

246 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,800 crowned on the awesome throne of the waters of
the sea,

247 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:46,560 seated by incredible power in a blow of all winds

248 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,080 rich prince of great Portugal.

249 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,840 Your master and mine which in you

250 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,160 Pêro de Faria steel column pole,

251 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,160 again I obey out of true and holy friendship,

252 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,920 this Angeessiry Timorraja.

253 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:11,680 I offer myself for new deal of gold, pepper,
eagle, camphor, benzoin

254 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,600 fill that Customs House of yours and mine.

255 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,400 The king of the Batas inhabits the island of
Samatra,

256 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,400 across the ocean,

257 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,920 where the Island of Gold is presumed to lie.

258 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,160 El-Rei, nosso senhor, D. João III,

259 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,480 has already tried several times to have it
discovered,

260 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,600 by information that some captains wrote to him
from these parts.

261 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,320 Fernão Mendes, you will bring them what they ask
for

262 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,240 and, above all, to know about the island.

263 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,520 To punish the perjured Achéns,

264 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,640 cruel enemies of this ancient Malacca of yours,

265 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:54,200 to which I swear to you that, as long as I live,
I will never have peace or friendship

266 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,920 to take vengeance for the blood of three sons

267 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:03,680 that this cruel tyrant put to death in the
village of Jacur and Lingau,

268 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,840 as more will tell you, on behalf of myself,

269 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,200 Aquarem Dabolay,

270 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,560 brother of this sad mother of these children.

271 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,960 From Panaju to the five mamocos of the eighth
moon,

272 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,200 for you, June 1539.

273 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,480 Then I saw, in a small river seven fathoms deep,

274 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,120 which they called Guateannguin, through the bush
trees,

275 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:04,840 a lot of snakes

276 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,160 and beasts of such admirable grandeur and
features

277 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,840 which is a lot to be afraid to tell, at least to

people who have seen little,

278 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,280 because this one, as it has seen little, also
usually gives little credit

279 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,040 to much that others have seen.

280 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,640 He asks you from the heart that in these sunny
meadows

281 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,720 and with the great reward you receive

282 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,840 is satisfied with the good that you have done
here.

283 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:54,880 Conserves with him new friendship of this good
captain

284 00:23:55,000 --> 00:24:00,080 so that you can put in work what you have just
heard.
285 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:05,800 Pchy parau tinacor!

286 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,440 Whoever saw him would soon die.

287 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,240 And I promised him all the help of Pêro Faria

288 00:24:16,360 --> 00:24:19,960 and of the Portuguese against King Aceh, ally of
the Turks.

289 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,600 Portuguese, Portuguese...

290 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,120 Portuguese, Portuguese,

291 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,000 I beg you, do not make me so foolish.

292 00:24:34,120 --> 00:24:37,440 Since you want me to answer you, let him take
care

293 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,360 who in 30 years could not avenge himself,

294 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,720 you can help me.

295 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,000 Why as king of you others and your governors

296 00:24:46,120 --> 00:24:48,200 have not punished this enemy Aceh

297 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:52,360 when he took the fortress of Pacem, and killed
more than a thousand of you,

298 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,040 apart from the rich prey he took in them.

299 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,080 Therefore, it was for him to punish me

300 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,800 and I have very little hope for your words,

301 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,680 it is enough for me to stay as I am, with three
dead children

302 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,400 and most of my kingdom taken

303 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,440 and you, in your Malacca,

304 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,560 also not very safe.

305 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,360 With this answer said with so much feeling,

306 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,120 I confess I was so rushed and embarrassed

307 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,040 that I never spoke to him again about help,

308 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,160 nor did I dare to repeat the promises that I had
previously made to him for our honor.

309 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:03,960 12 cates de calambuco,

310 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,560 with a turtle pussy garnished with gold,

311 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,800 full of coarse aljofre.

312 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,480 16 good-sized pearls.

313 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:16,720 And for me, two golden cates

314 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,400 and a small terçado garnished with the same.

315 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,000 And bidding him farewell with many honors

316 00:26:23,120 --> 00:26:26,960 I came on board accompanied by his brother-in-law

Aquarem Daholay,

317 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,520 who was returning from Malacca as ambassador,

318 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,640 and of a Moor who claimed to be converted,

319 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:37,360 named Coja Ale, the captain's steward, but who
was a fake and a dangerous thief.

320 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,320 From Apefingau islet to Juncalão harbor,

321 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:51,640 with fair winds,

322 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,560 in two and a half days we were in Rio de Parlés,

323 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,440 from the Kingdom of Kedá.

324 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,480 We had been there for two days in a strange calm,

325 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,960 waiting for the winds to carry us.

326 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,240 Coja Ale and others had gone ashore long ago and
did not return.

327 00:27:06,360 --> 00:27:07,960 I couldn't fall asleep.

328 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:40,600 I give you 40 gold crosses.

329 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,440 I'll give you 40 crusades if you leave me alone!

330 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,480 Nor if they gave him all the gold in Malacca.

331 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:51,080 If they did so, he would have the King cut off
their heads.

332 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:55,080 And they will not kill you now, as they did the
Moor Coja Ale,

333 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,200 because the King wants to see you.

334 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,400 A loud voice came from above.

335 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,520 Which means, "Don't be afraid."

336 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,800 "Don't be afraid."

337 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,640 Then, the king pointed with his hand to a place

338 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:25,960 where the guards have opened a clearing and where
I should look.
339 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:34,160 On the ground, there were many dead bodies,

340 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,160 all in a pool of blood.

341 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,480 I recognized the body of Coja Ale.

342 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,600 Me? Amazed, out of my mind,

343 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:49,120 I threw myself to the ground, next to the
elephant's thick legs.

344 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,680 on the verge of tears, I raised my head and
screamed:

345 00:28:55,720 --> 00:29:00,560 I ask you, Lord, to take me first as your captive

346 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,000 than have me killed like those Moors lying there,

347 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,920 because I swear to you, that besides being a
Christian, I don't deserve it!

348 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,840 Am I such a bad man that I do that?

349 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,520 I had this Moor of yours that you brought with
you killed,

350 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:23,040 because if it were Portuguese or Christian, by my

law I swear to you

351 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,760 I wouldn't, even if I had killed a child.

352 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,080 That Moor of yours that lies there,

353 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,680 in the company of other dogs like him,

354 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,840 said of me so many evils that I am ashamed to

repeat them.

355 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,560 Saying in loud voices that I was a pig

356 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:44,280 and worse than pig, my mother, bitch out.

357 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:46,960 Mr. my husband,

358 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,720 are not stories you tell to children, my God!

359 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,840 I have always been a very good son,

360 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,320 However, because my mother does not stay as
others do,

361 00:29:56,440 --> 00:30:01,440 very widows, poor and helpless, I have taken her
to be my wife.

362 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,120 And I answered him:

363 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:09,320 Your Highness did very well in having that Moor
killed,
364 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,600 made great friendship with the Captain of
Malacca,

365 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,440 because he was a thief, sly

366 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:19,760 and even I wanted to kill myself with venom.

367 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:25,560 The King got down from the elephant and very
happily came to embrace me.

368 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:32,480 Sure in that answer of yours I know you are a
very good man

369 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,760 and a lot my friend,

370 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,200 because my things don't seem bad to you,

371 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,320 like those turkeys lying there!

372 00:30:54,640 --> 00:31:01,640 Up this river

373 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,160 My dream, how much I want you I don't even know

374 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:13,440 Stay a little longer than me too That I too, my
darling

375 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,560 Up this river

376 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:22,840 Leaving behind the deep concave of the smoke
house

377 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:29,280 I came close to the dream Floating in the waters
of the rivers of the heavens

378 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,520 Drain the ginger and honey

379 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:35,720 Silks, china, pepper and cinnamon

380 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:42,160 Receiving offers of soft music In our ears

381 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,080 Light as air The land to sail

382 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:50,480 My good as I go

383 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:55,480 Up this river

384 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,280 My dream, how much I want you I don't even know

385 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:04,680 Stay a little longer than me too That I too, my
darling

386 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,720 Up this river

387 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:14,120 Leaving behind the deep concave of the smoke
house

388 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:20,520 I came close to the dream Floating in the waters
of the rivers of the heavens
389 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:27,040 Ginger and honey drip Silk, porcelain, pepper and
cinnamon

390 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:33,360 Receiving soft music offers In our ears

391 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:37,240 Light as air The land to sail

392 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:41,360 My good, how do I go

393 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:47,800 Up this river

394 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:02,600 How is that possible?

395 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:10,840 On many of these islands there is a lot of gold
and silver, amber and diamonds,

396 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:15,560 pepper, clove, nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, camphor,

397 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,560 infinity of rice.

398 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:27,600 Lots of wax, tin, lead and some copper.

399 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,640 From the Cape of Good Hope, to the island of
Japan,

400 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,920 which is the distance of three thousand leagues,

401 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:38,280 there are 162 kings as emperors.

402 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,440 But others have written this, and we should not
waste time.

403 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:55,400 El-King spends a lot of time listening to the
Portuguese.

404 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,120 He gives so much credit to his truths,

405 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,880 as is testimony to the time spent in knowing

them.

406 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,800 More than an hour, sir.

407 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,480 But... Why listen to a Portuguese?

408 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:12,120 When the king is the sole owner of an empire as
big as the world,

409 00:34:12,240 --> 00:34:14,000 where the sun never sets?

410 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,000 And the island?

411 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,200 - The island! - The island of gold,

412 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,480 according to what everybody says, lies at the sea
of the river Calandor,

413 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,440 in five degrees from the South, surrounded by
many lows
414 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,240 and large chains

415 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,040 and that it can be distant from the tip of
Samatra island

416 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:57,560 to 160 leagues, a little more or less.

417 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,240 Everything went wrong on my way back from the
kingdom of Aaru,

418 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:07,800 where Pero Faria had sent arms and gunpowder to
our faithful ally

419 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,920 in the fight against the Moor of the Kingdom of
Aceh.

420 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,800 And of the farm that we brought in exchange, we
saved nothing.

421 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,400 Neither the treasures nor the lives,

422 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,960 because of the 28 people we were in them,

423 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,760 23 drowned in less than a credo,

424 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,440 and the five who escaped,

425 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,800 only by the mercy of our Lord,

426 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:28,440 and badly wounded,

427 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,880 we spent the rest of the night standing on
boulders.

428 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,440 Is there no village around here?

429 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:41,160 The settlement, sir, that you and I now have
closer,

430 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,520 if God miraculously does not help us,

431 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,400 is the painful death before our eyes

432 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:56,000 and the accounts of sins that before very few
hours

433 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:57,880 we will give.

434 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,400 Lord, make me a Christian!

435 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,160 I am going to die, and only then can I be saved.

436 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,320 And I ask forgiveness of your God,

437 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:14,240 for having lived so far in the sect of Mafamede.

438 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:40,400 I baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son
and the Holy Spirit.
439 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:04,640 A Turkish boat passed by.

440 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,000 And again I was captive.

441 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,560 And again I went through torments.

442 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:14,000 Me and Malay tied us to the foot of the mast

443 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:19,360 with bent ropes and that made us bleed a lot.

444 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,600 They soothed the scourging wounds

445 00:37:21,720 --> 00:37:26,920 with a drink made of caldelit and urine,

446 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,240 but Our Lord wanted us not to die from them.

447 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:37,400 But the pain in me was so excessive that I was at
death's door.

448 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:43,000 Until a Moor from Palimbão was sorry for my
misfortune

449 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:44,760 and took me to Malacca.

450 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:46,600 I have been lying down for over a month,

451 00:37:46,720 --> 00:37:50,400 but praise be to Our Lord that I have received
perfect health at all.

452 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:55,720 Hard to believe, hard to believe, but praise the
Lord!

453 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:05,120 I was sent several times as ambassador to the
King of Aaru

454 00:38:05,240 --> 00:38:09,160 to support him against his and our enemies from
Achem.

455 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,080 And so not to lose most of your income

456 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:19,080 and the drug of clove, nut and apple, which is
brought to our kingdom from there.

457 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,600 Actually, actually...

458 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:28,280 Poor me, who has done so much, who has suffered
so much.

459 00:38:29,720 --> 00:38:33,920 Be careful what you say, Fernão Mendes, times are
dangerous.

460 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,680 And how did you meet Antonio Faria, the corsair?

461 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:03,160 The corsair António Faria was carrying 10 or 12
thousand cruzados

462 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:04,640 on clothes from India,

463 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,280 which were so poorly digested in that land,

464 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,720 that there was no one to promise them anything
for them.

465 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,560 He was advised to take them to Lugor,

466 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:14,680 which was a city in the kingdom of Zion.

467 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,240 He didn't want to go, and made a certain
Cristóvão Borralho his steward,

468 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,440 a man well versed in the business of

merchandising,

469 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:25,880 on which way, the poor me hit one of this
company.

470 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,280 And the new ones we found there were so good,

471 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,400 that in the business we doubled the money almost
six times.

472 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:16,280 Of the 16 Portuguese we were, 12 were killed.

473 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,800 The four of us who escaped threw ourselves into
the sea.

474 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,720 Eat, you poor foreigners,

475 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,880 and don't be discouraged by being seen like that,

476 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,880 for here I am, who am a woman and not so old

477 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,680 that I have been captive for fifty years and less
than six

478 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:45,600 and stolen of more than 100 thousand cruzados
that I had of mine

479 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,080 and with three dead children and a husband who
was Portuguese

480 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:54,000 like you others whom I wanted more than the eyes
with which I saw him

481 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:59,840 and so everyone, father like sons, two brothers
and a son-in-law,

482 00:40:59,960 --> 00:41:03,560 I saw them torn to pieces in the trunks of the
elephants of the King of Zion.

483 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:09,880 And, with a weary and sad life, I strain all
these evils and sorrows,

484 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,840 and others almost to the same size, which were
seen in the same way

485 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:20,520 three maiden daughters and my mother, and my
father, and 32 relatives of mine,

486 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,600 nephews and cousins, put in lit ovens,

487 00:41:23,720 --> 00:41:26,440 giving such cries that they broke through the
sky,

488 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:30,360 that God might avail them in that most
inhospitable torment!

489 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,720 And you will know what people were those of the
big black reed

490 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:35,640 and why did they attack us like that?

491 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:40,000 From the pirate Coja Acém, a Gujarati Moor,

492 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:41,760 that morning passed by this river,

493 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,760 in his reed loaded with pau brasil...

494 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,000 And why did he make us such a deadly enemy?

495 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,320 From the generation of your men from Malacca,

496 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,720 he boasts of having killed a large sum,

497 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,880 and wants you so badly that he promised his
Mafamede

498 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:56,320 kill many more.

499 00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:58,960 Why his hatred?

500 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,400 He tells that one of your great captains

501 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:05,240 his name Heitor da Silveira, killed his father
and two brothers

502 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,560 in a ship that was taken from him in the straits
of Mecca,

503 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:11,680 coming they from Judah to Dabul, thus the great
hatred for you.

504 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:21,040 The whole farm? All lost? All the men dead?

505 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:26,600 Coja Acém! Coja Acém! I'll cut his throat, I'll
quarter him!

506 00:42:26,720 --> 00:42:28,720 Even if it's the last thing you do.

507 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,320 Along the water there are 38 villages,

508 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:56,000 only in one of them, named Xincaléu,

509 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,560 there is a mine that you take out of it every day

510 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,680 one and a half bars of gold.

511 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,560 In jars stuck in the earth up to the neck,

512 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:16,280 there are 600 bars of gold dust!

513 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:20,200 Three hundred men are enough, from our nation,

514 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:24,120 to take him on and own that treasure!

515 00:43:24,240 --> 00:43:25,440 And Coja Acém?

516 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:27,880 On time.

517 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:35,600 On time.

518 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,280 You'll have to wait your damned luck.

519 00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:00,120 Is this the dog that killed your master and made
you a slave?

520 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,520 Yes, yes! And he also killed your Gaspar de Lemos

521 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:05,680 and 26 others Portuguese,

522 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:07,800 blowing their brains out with a lock.

523 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,360 Now, your brains are going to jump out, too!

524 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,360 What about the Chins? Do they kill themselves?

525 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,200 Spare them, they are needed for the yellowing of
this reed,

526 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:16,720 that is big and tall.

527 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,600 But now it is ours, that God has willed it so.

528 00:45:16,240 --> 00:45:18,240 António Faria captured the reed,

529 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:21,160 where the beautiful Chinese woman was going to
meet her fiancé.

530 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,760 With it, she carried a moving letter.

531 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:31,640 António Faria tore his letter before tearing his
clothes.

532 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:38,120 But now, my lord, from my father's house

533 00:45:38,240 --> 00:45:43,520 even here I came to get you, you come from there,
from where you are,

534 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:47,560 to this ship where I am no longer,

535 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:52,640 because only in seeing you can I see myself.

536 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:57,360 But how can you not see me in the darkness of
this night,
537 00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:01,880 not sure if in the whiteness of the morning

538 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,160 you can see me among the living.

539 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:41,520 The Portuguese and the slaves were so shapeless

540 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:44,560 on the figures of the faces that were frightening

541 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:48,080 and so weak that they couldn't even throw speech
out of their mouths.

542 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,360 Two more Portuguese have passed away tonight,

543 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:04,160 that we didn't want to eat, having need of it.

544 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,880 After these miserable labors in which we found
ourselves

545 00:48:12,720 --> 00:48:19,680 and we lost a thousand bars of carnation worth
more than 100,000 cruzados.

546 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:23,520 Blessed are you, my Lord Jesus Christ.

547 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:28,000 I, more sinful than all men, ask you with much
humility,

548 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:29,440 in the name of these thy servants,

549 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:32,760 whose souls You have redeemed with Your precious
blood,

550 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,280 that you give us effort and victory

551 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:40,000 against this cruel enemy, killer of so many
Portuguese!

552 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:44,880 Again Coja Acém, again Coja Acém.

553 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:46,840 But it was not long before he found it.

554 00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:00,880 O Ana, come and see O Ana, come and see

555 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,280 Oh Ana, come see

556 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:14,120 Burning boats raised

557 00:49:14,240 --> 00:49:17,280 It felt like a dream Queimados

558 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:20,880 The horrid cries of the wounded beast

559 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:24,280 That inside were burning men Trapped

560 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:27,680 And out with the cleavage Deceived in the silence

561 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:30,000 For the breasts already undone

562 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:34,400 Weep for me, O my infanta Run down blood the sky
and the earth
563 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,120 Ah for however holy

564 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,080 The war is war

565 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:43,640 Christians!

566 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,960 If these strive in the damned sect of the devil,

567 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:50,760 Let us strive in Christ, our Lord,

568 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,640 who will not abandon us, however sinful we may
be,

569 00:49:54,760 --> 00:50:00,440 because, at last, we are yours, which these
turkeys are not!

570 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:30,880 Run away redneck Eh parolo

571 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,240 Aguenta António de Faria E a fidalguia

572 00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:36,720 All the slaughter and all the discomfort

573 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:41,320 That Coja Acém is already there and the sea is
burning

574 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,760 O Ana, come and see O Ana, come and see

575 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:48,480 Oh Ana, come see

576 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,160 Say goodbye to us the pirate The labyrinth

577 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:54,760 From up there on that pole Trocista e airoso

578 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,960 Showing a black man's dark black ass

579 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:01,320 Bringing us treasure and treasure Laughing with
joy

580 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:04,840 The rest was lost in the wet By the crash in the
broken

581 00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:06,960 In gangrene edema

582 00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:11,520 Weep for me, O my infanta Run down blood the sky
and the earth

583 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,240 Ah for as holy as it is

584 00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:17,000 War is war

585 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:20,360 Malacca, malacca War is war

586 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:23,720 In heaven and earth In teeth the knife

587 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:27,280 Advance and advance The war is war

588 00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:30,560 In heaven and on earth Swing, swing

589 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:34,040 Crusader, crusader War is war

590 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,280 In heaven and on earth The most adorned

591 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:40,760 Malacca, malacca War is war

592 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:44,480 In heaven and earth In teeth the knife

593 00:51:49,240 --> 00:51:52,000 A lot of walking to this hell.

594 00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:57,360 And the remains of Coja Acém ended up in the
stomachs of lizards,

595 00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:01,120 who were hanging around the reed in great
numbers,

596 00:52:01,240 --> 00:52:03,640 to the carrion of the dead who were thrown.

597 00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:27,840 But all that had been gained would be lost.

598 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,760 The sea became so thick, the night so dark,

599 00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:33,120 the scowl so loud, the smell so strong,

600 00:52:33,240 --> 00:52:37,280 the impetus of the wind so unbearable and of
refrains so furious,

601 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:38,600 that there was no man

602 00:52:38,720 --> 00:52:40,520 that I could expect them with a straight face.

603 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:45,640 In less than an hour, the entire farm was thrown
into the sea,

604 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:48,440 nothing remained that could be named,

605 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,960 all to drive out the reed and save us.

606 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:59,040 Deliver me from the hunger that consumes me

607 00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:02,200 From this cold

608 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:08,200 Deliver me from the evil of this animal

609 00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:11,760 What is this heat

610 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:15,520 Deliver me from fate

611 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:20,560 And if you can bless

612 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:23,240 Take me

613 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:29,960 Flying through the air

614 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:38,040 We walk naked and barefoot Thirsty lovers

615 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:43,480 If the veil of night lies On the curve of time

616 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:46,600 Ai new moon of October

617 00:53:46,720 --> 00:53:50,960 The fears are fears Of rains and winds

618 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:54,840 From the soul to whisper

619 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:59,280 From the whispering mouth

620 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:06,400 Goodbye

621 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,920 Lord God, mercy!

622 00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:16,080 Allow, by punishment of your divine justice,

623 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:21,200 that I alone pay for the offenses, which I and
these men have done to you.

624 00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:31,240 Almada, March 15, 1571.

625 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,080 Magnificent Mr. Bernardo,

626 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,920 thinking after I depart from your lordship

627 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:40,720 that I promised you about writing

628 00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:45,200 to the Most Serene Grand Duke, I certify that I
do not feel in myself

629 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,600 skill nor art to be able to do it.

630 00:54:48,720 --> 00:54:53,160 I tell you that representing the inequality of my
person

631 00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:56,240 to the majesty of such a high prince...

632 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:59,280 But who is this high prince?

633 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,440 Cosimo I de Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany.

634 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:04,920 He sent this Bernardo Néri as ambassador,

635 00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:07,640 to know the things that I know from the East.

636 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:11,120 And do you want to tell a foreigner

637 00:55:11,240 --> 00:55:13,720 the things that should remain ours?

638 00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:16,240 D. Maria Correia de Brito, my lady!

639 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:20,080 Our kings and rulers are more interested in
creeds

640 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:23,640 and inventions than in the truth of that
extraordinary realm.

641 00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:29,040 Calm down your landlady, don't go waking up your
children.

642 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:38,160 Rest assured, my lady, our children will not wake
up.
643 00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:46,280 And I, to the exalted prince, courteously say
almost nothing.

644 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:51,760 For of these lands and kingdoms I will write at
length in my book.

645 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:53,080 Listen...

646 00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:57,400 Now, Mr. Bernardo, about China,

647 00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:00,040 I beg you to release me from this obligation,

648 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:04,400 because things are so great that, to put it
mildly,

649 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:06,400 I need deed quite a lot,

650 00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:09,160 according to what I have seen, heard and read
from the chronicles

651 00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:10,880 of the past kings of China.

652 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:14,160 I will only tell you that the main metropolis is
called Beijing

653 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:17,080 and the second Nanking and the third Pocasser.

654 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:20,240 Beijing is the largest, most distinguished and
richest

655 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:22,800 of how many are built under the sun.

656 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:26,240 Only the circuit to the king's house is seven
leagues,

657 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:30,160 and in which 100,000 castrated men live

658 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:33,880 and 30 thousand women who serve the house of the
Lord.

659 00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:37,120 And from here I don't determine to go any
further,

660 00:56:37,240 --> 00:56:41,880 because my book I am making with such a diamond
value

661 00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:46,360 will have a higher price for my work.

662 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:51,280 And I say goodbye with a thousand kisses

663 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:55,400 the hands of his excellency.

664 00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:59,160 And now that it's so late,

665 00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:03,880 won't your lordship come kiss mine and lie down?

666 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:31,760 After a miraculous rescue, thanks to our Lord,

667 00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:34,000 and a winter of several months,

668 00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:37,680 António Faria in Liampó was told he was a
privateer Chin

669 00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,400 very famous, who was called Similau.

670 00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:42,520 Who told him many great things

671 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:46,680 of an island named Calemplui, on which were 17

deposits

672 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:50,120 of the Kings of China in some golden

presbyteries.

673 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:52,160 By the testimony said by Chin,

674 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:55,120 António Faria determined to put himself at risk

675 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:57,200 and make this trip.

676 00:57:57,320 --> 00:58:01,120 It was May 14, 1542.

677 00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:18,520 They had already sailed twice as long as Similau
had promised,

678 00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:22,200 on the journey that would take them to the king's
treasures.

679 00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:25,000 The sailors, restless and suspicious,

680 00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:26,920 were about to riot.

681 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:53,080 He tells you again he is so right

682 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:54,480 on this track that leads,

683 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:57,720 who would not fear to give you a thousand
children as hostages

684 00:58:57,840 --> 00:58:59,440 as he promised you in Liampó.

685 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,520 But if you believe what others are continually
saying to your ear,

686 00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:10,240 you send whatever you want!

687 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:21,720 Or else, let this heart of yours be quiet now,

688 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:26,040 because you will see how fruitful you will get
from this work.

689 01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,240 In two nights there were outbreaks,

690 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:08,520 if they didn't notice lizards, whales, fish

691 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,480 and serpents that they had seen during the day,

692 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:14,800 because there was so much howling, blowing and
snoring,
693 01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:17,880 and on the beach the seahorses' neighs,

694 01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:21,400 that I dare not declare with words.

695 01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:55,680 He confesses, sir, that as a man he is,

696 01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:59,200 which lost the estimate for where we are
navigating.

697 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:01,200 What do you say?

698 01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:12,440 He confesses that we are lost.

699 01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:15,560 I kill him! I kill him now!

700 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:18,680 Sir, it will be worse! We are all left without
anything to do.

701 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:22,520 I swear by Our Lord,

702 01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:24,880 if you don't show me the mistake soon

703 01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:28,280 or I will stab you to death!

704 01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:34,120 Days, months of traveling for nothing.

705 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:43,720 Similau fled and took all the Chinese sailors
with him,

706 01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:45,680 but, shortly after, by some miracle,

707 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:48,960 hit a surging barge, inside which by the great
tightness

708 01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:50,480 and need they were

709 01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:54,080 os was forced to enter without a hitch

710 01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:57,600 and they took five men who were sleeping in it.

711 01:01:57,720 --> 01:01:59,840 António Faria asked each one for himself,

712 01:01:59,960 --> 01:02:03,040 to see if they were all concerted in their
answers.

713 01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:05,760 The land nearby was called Tanquileu,

714 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:09,080 and was only ten leagues south of Calemplui
Island.

715 01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:13,560 Prove to Our Lord that by bending a point of
land,

716 01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:16,040 who was called Guinaytaran,

717 01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:18,520 discovered this island of Calemplui,

718 01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:21,600 which they had been seeking for 83 days,
719 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:23,760 with so much confusion of work and fear,

720 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:26,080 how many back are counted.

721 01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:07,760 I've never seen anything like it! Praise God!

722 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:10,680 But I hope that this greatness is not the art of
the devil.

723 01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:16,360 Let's go upstairs, to the hermitages,

724 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:18,280 see if there is what Similau said there was.

725 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:20,920 Maybe I'll forgive him.

726 01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:23,440 Father Diogo Lobato stays here as captain.

727 01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:25,280 Me? I stay here?

728 01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:27,120 I can get enough.

729 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:28,800 And it will send up a chinese rocket

730 01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:31,120 if anyone weird around here shows up.

731 01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:35,040 To arms!

732 01:04:55,240 --> 01:05:00,040 Instead of thanking God for such a grace, you
come to steal!

733 01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:13,480 You're going to hell!

734 01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:17,400 The more weight you carry on this head,

735 01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:21,560 the faster you go down.

736 01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:24,480 We also walk through the world

737 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,000 to spread the truth of our God.

738 01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:39,600 No women around here?

739 01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:14,440 Let's go!

740 01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:24,880 Every action has a reward, every sin a
punishment.

741 01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:28,440 As soon as the day was clear, and all the sea was
visible,

742 01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:31,960 did not see António Faria, who disappeared
forever and ever.

743 01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:33,320 And they all just stunned,

744 01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:36,200 so that none had any agreement for anything.

745 01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:39,040 This misfortune happened on a Monday,

746 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:42,480 5 August, year 1542,

747 01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:46,600 by which our Lord be praised forever.

748 01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:50,680 What an extraordinary mind and so full of fever.

749 01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:55,760 We ask him for facts, and he tells us stories.

750 01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:57,400 Much good will come of it

751 01:06:57,520 --> 01:06:59,280 for the history of the missions to the East

752 01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:01,480 that His Majesty has ordered me to do.

753 01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:05,440 King Philip highly values fables and recitatives.

754 01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:18,280 Finally, it will be in this Lord's year of 1562,

755 01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:22,520 that the King will grant me the dowry that I have
been requesting for 25 years,

756 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:25,840 and that I have always been denied and that I
very much deserve.

757 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:42,240 We walked for days and months without knowing the
meaning,

758 01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:44,400 by small land and by large land

759 01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:46,240 inside the Chin Kingdom,

760 01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:50,120 first as beggars, then taken by thieves.

761 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:53,040 We were captured and handed over to a guard,

762 01:07:53,160 --> 01:07:56,240 which now takes us to the auditorium of foreign
people

763 01:07:56,360 --> 01:07:58,160 at the Beijing grand court.

764 01:07:59,080 --> 01:08:03,040 Of the 14 saved from the wreck, five had already
died

765 01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:05,840 and there were only nine left, with feet in
blood,

766 01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:09,040 almost without clothes, very badly beaten.

767 01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:14,840 Slow down, Lord The penalty of the dead

768 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:19,560 To be praised with quiet sleep

769 01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:24,560 Slow down, Lord The penalty of the dead

770 01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:29,880 To be praised with quiet sleep

771 01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:40,560 In the procession The penitents

772 01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:45,760 They drink puffs of bitter drink

773 01:08:47,440 --> 01:08:51,440 From the urine they then vomit

774 01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:56,960 Through the unlucky night

775 01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:03,040 In the procession The Penitents

776 01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:08,400 They eat curdled blood

777 01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:13,920 From the bleeding of the other pilgrims

778 01:09:15,560 --> 01:09:19,760 Gently mutilated

779 01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:24,000 And they sing praises

780 01:09:24,120 --> 01:09:28,680 To God

781 01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:33,440 Slow down, Lord The penalty of the dead

782 01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:38,240 Praise you with quiet sleep

783 01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:43,240 Slow down, Lord The penalty of the dead

784 01:09:43,360 --> 01:09:48,280 Praise you with quiet sleep

785 01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:54,600 Here lies Trannocem Mudeliar, uncle of the King
of Malacca,

786 01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:58,800 whom death took, before God avenged him

787 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:03,040 from Captain Albuquerque, lion of the sea
robbers.

788 01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:11,240 Slow down, Lord The penalty of the dead

789 01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:16,120 For them to praise you With quiet sleep

790 01:10:16,240 --> 01:10:21,160 Slow down, Lord The penalty of the dead

791 01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:26,280 That they may praise you With quiet sleep

792 01:11:02,400 --> 01:11:09,080 This Pitau Delacor, new chaem of the auditorium

793 01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:11,000 from the foreign people,

794 01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:16,880 by the will of the son of the Sun, crowned lion
on the throne of the world,

795 01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:21,920 to which all scepters and crowns, of all kings
that rule the earth

796 01:11:22,040 --> 01:11:27,040 are subjected and put under his feet.

797 01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:35,120 By grace and will of the highest heaven.

798 01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:39,040 The flogging was carried out immediately

799 01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:42,960 and wanting to make himself also in the cutting
of the fingers

800 01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:47,320 came claiming on our part the proxies of the
poor,

801 01:11:47,440 --> 01:11:50,680 saying that we were wrongly condemned,

802 01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:55,160 since there is no proof whatsoever of what was
put against us,

803 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:58,880 in the fifth book of the Will of the Son of the
Sun,

804 01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:04,440 which, by its greatness and reality, is more
inclined to the clamor of the poor

805 01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:08,240 than to the roar of the swollen ones of the
earth.

806 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,280 He tells us nine

807 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:14,920 let us be free from all that is against us

808 01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:17,840 requested prosecutor

809 01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:21,880 and will not give us punishment of death penalty.

810 01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:25,440 He only sentences us to a year in prison

811 01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:30,560 for the works of Changcheng in the land of
Quansy.

812 01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:39,640 It is a very old poem.

813 01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:41,960 And he says he will pour more wine.

814 01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:36,880 What I would give to have a mime here now

815 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:38,680 that would mitigate my suffering.

816 01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:44,080 From a mother, a sister, a wife or a bride.

817 01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:51,160 Cristóvão Borralho.

818 01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:11,480 Meng.

819 01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:03,720 Merciful Lord, I marry You, I stay here.

820 01:18:07,240 --> 01:18:09,840 I do the time and then I come back.

821 01:18:15,480 --> 01:18:16,680 I stay.

822 01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:21,400 I stay forever.

823 01:18:23,680 --> 01:18:24,880 Meng...

824 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:29,720 I possess your body, but I don't know how to
possess your soul.
825 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:52,520 Also the reason that we know, the grand order

826 01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:53,840 and wonderful government

827 01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:56,960 that king chin has to provide his kingdom with
supplies

828 01:18:57,080 --> 01:19:00,320 so that the poor people do not have to suffer.

829 01:19:00,440 --> 01:19:03,240 His chronicles, which I sometimes heard read,

830 01:19:03,360 --> 01:19:06,560 should be an example of both charity and good
government

831 01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:08,880 for the Christian kingdoms and republics.

832 01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:45,440 A year passes quickly, I thought.

833 01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:47,960 I asked him to wait, and I would be back.

834 01:20:48,080 --> 01:20:51,160 It was January 13, 1544.

835 01:20:51,280 --> 01:20:54,960 But the fairies decided to interfere again and
destroy the promise.

836 01:20:56,440 --> 01:21:00,040 I would never again see the beautiful Meng with
whom I had fallen in love.

837 01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:14,280 As we came well recommended, the Quansy chaem

838 01:21:14,400 --> 01:21:17,520 he wanted us to serve him in guarding the 80

halberdiers

839 01:21:17,640 --> 01:21:21,840 that the King gave him, and we had by merit a
great deal.

840 01:21:24,200 --> 01:21:26,480 We had been here almost a month,

841 01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:28,400 happier than we expected,

842 01:21:28,520 --> 01:21:30,080 despite the violent work

843 01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:33,280 that those condemned men were doing before our
eyes,

844 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:35,280 which caused us great suffering.

845 01:21:36,440 --> 01:21:38,720 But what is this madness for?

846 01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:40,840 Greater than anything in the world ever built.

847 01:21:42,120 --> 01:21:44,960 For the chin kingdom to defend itself against the
tartar kingdom,

848 01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:48,120 which is very powerful, in men and weapons.

849 01:22:04,080 --> 01:22:07,720 Seeing the devil how conformed we all lived,

850 01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:11,720 commanded to sow between two of us a strife born
of vanity

851 01:22:11,840 --> 01:22:16,160 that the Portuguese nation has with it that its
nature is to be badly suffered

852 01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:17,560 in questions of honor.

853 01:22:18,800 --> 01:22:21,800 Who are you? but who are you?

854 01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:24,920 Shouted in low haggling terms.

855 01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:27,600 But who cares, in lands so far away,

856 01:22:27,720 --> 01:22:31,640 if the Madureiras are worth more than the
Fonsecas?

857 01:22:31,760 --> 01:22:35,400 And we were thrown into the dungeons of the
Sabbath Mountains,

858 01:22:35,520 --> 01:22:38,800 so that we could hear the wild beasts at night.

859 01:22:38,920 --> 01:22:43,240 To the chaem and his judges, we were only
servants

860 01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:45,760 from the tobacco company's sawmill.

861 01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:50,600 I am from the Fonsecas I am from the Madureiras

862 01:22:52,080 --> 01:22:55,080 Of faith and pure blood What runs in my veins

863 01:22:55,200 --> 01:23:00,640 I was born of temporal passion From the birth of
the gale

864 01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:02,600 Coming down in the heat of the fight

865 01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:05,960 In a brute force Beyond mortals

866 01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:11,280 But I miss a lot Certain sorrows and longings

867 01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:16,200 And that crazy anxiety Like a sin

868 01:23:16,320 --> 01:23:20,480 My love if I can't see you Look at fado

869 01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:23,200 Now she's so vindictive Now she's so patient

870 01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:25,720 Tomorrow is with a pain Today abstinent

871 01:23:25,840 --> 01:23:29,880 Liar pimp Sweet and true

872 01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:33,720 Once conqueror Once vanquished

873 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:36,360 Tomorrow is Navigator Today is Disabled

874 01:23:36,480 --> 01:23:40,480 Sensual, adventurous, crazy, and a brawler

875 01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:44,280 We are captains We are Albuquerques

876 01:23:44,400 --> 01:23:46,800 We are lions The wolves of the seas
877 01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:50,160 Eyes nailed to the heavens From above the
chapithees

878 01:23:52,320 --> 01:23:54,720 We are captains We are Albuquerques

879 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:57,360 We are lions The wolves of the seas

880 01:23:57,480 --> 01:24:00,920 And really what hurts us is that we don't want to
be heroes

881 01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:07,320 Good Lord, the Tartars!

882 01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:14,200 After these long six and a half months of the
siege of Beijing,

883 01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:19,440 in which there were many battles and many deaths
on both sides,

884 01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:23,240 and the lack of supplies being so great

885 01:24:23,360 --> 01:24:25,200 that even for the horses there was no feed,

886 01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:29,560 El-King Tartarus was forced to lift the siege.

887 01:24:30,440 --> 01:24:32,960 Of the many hundreds of thousands of men he had
brought,

888 01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:36,880 took 750,000 less.

889 01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:42,080 El-King Tartar departed from this city of Peking

890 01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:48,320 on a Friday, the 17th of October,

891 01:24:48,440 --> 01:24:50,240 is now 20 years.

892 01:24:56,360 --> 01:25:00,080 After 13 days, we arrived at the port of Sanchão
Island,

893 01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:01,760 in the Kingdom of China

894 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:05,000 and finding no ship for Malacca there by this
time,

895 01:25:05,120 --> 01:25:07,960 we went to another port seven leagues further on,

896 01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:09,880 named Lampacau.

897 01:25:11,360 --> 01:25:14,840 And we had to stay on that small island for nine
more days,

898 01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:17,360 risking many great dangers.

899 01:25:18,920 --> 01:25:23,000 So, we bought rifles and powder for half of our
taels

900 01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:25,840 to a Portuguese who had recovered them in good
condition

901 01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:27,800 of a Portuguese shipwreck.

902 01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:31,480 He lived in Lampacau, wanting for nothing,

903 01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:34,480 hidden in Chinese clothing so that he would not
be recognized,

904 01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:36,160 and happy with our taels

905 01:25:36,280 --> 01:25:39,600 that could be used to buy him a place on a ship,

906 01:25:39,720 --> 01:25:43,040 and that if God allowed it, he would return to
Portugal,

907 01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:45,360 where he had children and a wife.

908 01:26:12,280 --> 01:26:14,360 One day, a gust of wind gusts

909 01:26:14,480 --> 01:26:17,200 threw us onto a large island, which appeared in
front of us,

910 01:26:17,320 --> 01:26:19,960 and where no Portuguese had been before.

911 01:26:20,080 --> 01:26:21,680 It was the kingdom of Japan.

912 01:26:29,880 --> 01:26:31,200 By the color of our skin,

913 01:26:31,320 --> 01:26:33,400 by the shape of our eyes and noses,

914 01:26:33,520 --> 01:26:37,280 we were nothing like the Chins that the Japanese
knew.

915 01:26:37,400 --> 01:26:41,280 The inhabitants of this island had never seen a
Portuguese.

916 01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:44,280 To the prince who received us, he sent the King
of Bungo,

917 01:26:44,400 --> 01:26:47,200 his uncle, very excited, the following letter:

918 01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:51,680 "Right eye of my face, sitting just like me

919 01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:55,200 "as each of my beloved ones, I, Oregendó, your
father,

920 01:26:55,320 --> 01:26:58,240 "I tell you, my son, that in days gone by

921 01:26:58,360 --> 01:27:00,880 "they certified to me men, who came from that
land,

922 01:27:01,000 --> 01:27:04,320 "that you had in this city of yours some three
Chenchicogins

923 01:27:04,440 --> 01:27:08,040 "from the cape of the world, people very
appropriate to the Japanese,

924 01:27:08,160 --> 01:27:10,320 "for it is written in our books,

925 01:27:10,440 --> 01:27:12,640 "that they, flying over the waters,
926 01:27:12,760 --> 01:27:16,200 "have lorded it over the inhabitants of the lands

927 01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:18,680 "where God created the riches of the world,

928 01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:20,520 "so it will fall in our good luck

929 01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:24,640 if they come to this kingdom with the title of
good friendship."

930 01:27:26,640 --> 01:27:29,440 I kiss His Highness' hands, for the mercy he does
us.

931 01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:45,440 While we waited for the King of Bungo to receive
us,

932 01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:48,280 as we had no veniaga to deal with,

933 01:27:48,400 --> 01:27:51,000 we spent our time fishing and hunting.

934 01:27:51,880 --> 01:27:54,800 All these people from Japan are naturally very
well inclined

935 01:27:54,920 --> 01:27:56,200 and convertible.

936 01:27:56,320 --> 01:27:58,920 The dexterity and effectiveness of Diogo Zeimoto

937 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:01,680 was highly praised by the Japanese.

938 01:28:01,800 --> 01:28:05,040 And the rifle they admired greatly was much
coveted

939 01:28:05,160 --> 01:28:08,360 and would change forever the kingdom of Japan.

940 01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:48,000 He feels a lot of cloudiness in you.

941 01:28:50,800 --> 01:28:52,200 Your Highness,

942 01:28:53,520 --> 01:28:55,000 is that, seeing me before your feet

943 01:28:55,120 --> 01:28:56,680 is enough for me to be mute for 100,000 years,

944 01:28:56,800 --> 01:28:58,400 if there were so many in your life.

945 01:28:58,520 --> 01:29:01,440 God made Your Highness in such a high degree
avant-garde to all,

946 01:29:01,560 --> 01:29:04,840 that I am a small ant in comparison with your
greatness,

947 01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:06,760 that I fear Your Highness will not see me.

948 01:29:33,480 --> 01:29:37,680 He thinks you are a priest or a thief.

949 01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:48,360 Strangely enough, the King of Bungo wanted to be
alone with me

950 01:29:48,480 --> 01:29:49,880 and with the interpreter.

951 01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:20,280 He is in a lot of pain, he looks very sick.

952 01:30:20,400 --> 01:30:23,600 Your Highness, I am not a doctor, nor have I
learned this science,

953 01:30:25,520 --> 01:30:27,960 but, in the bag I brought and left outside,

954 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:33,120 I have some sticks whose miracle water cures many
more ailments

955 01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:35,120 than the ones you complain about so much.

956 01:31:01,200 --> 01:31:03,840 The boiling water with the elder sticks

957 01:31:03,960 --> 01:31:06,160 had the effect of curing the gout in the King,

958 01:31:06,280 --> 01:31:10,280 who had long been bed-ridden and not moving his
arms.

959 01:31:10,400 --> 01:31:12,840 And the King was sane in less than 30 days.

960 01:31:12,960 --> 01:31:15,440 And in his joy he did not stop offering me many
feasts

961 01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:16,560 to my taste.

962 01:31:18,400 --> 01:31:20,280 But what I wanted more was to get back to
Malacca,

963 01:31:20,400 --> 01:31:23,000 to our people, whom I had not seen for more than
a year.

964 01:33:06,080 --> 01:33:09,000 Speak, speak! They will kill you!

965 01:33:10,600 --> 01:33:14,200 God knows what happened, and I take it upon Him
alone to judge this cause.

966 01:33:58,320 --> 01:34:00,360 On the forehead wound, because it was smaller,

967 01:34:00,480 --> 01:34:01,600 I only gave him five points

968 01:34:01,720 --> 01:34:03,960 and I put an eggshell on it.

969 01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:06,680 Then I tied his head very tightly with a sash,

970 01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:08,400 as I had done in India.

971 01:34:17,080 --> 01:34:19,640 Our Lord wanted that in less than twenty days

972 01:34:19,760 --> 01:34:21,320 the prince was sane,

973 01:34:21,440 --> 01:34:23,520 without getting more wrong than a little
forgetfulness

974 01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:24,840 on the thumb.

975 01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:29,480 And at the departure they gave me many garments
of silk dress, shoes

976 01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:32,040 and shakes, and 600 taels,

977 01:34:32,160 --> 01:34:35,320 so that the cure still set me up at more than
1500 crosses

978 01:34:35,440 --> 01:34:36,640 that I brought from there.

979 01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:46,400 And from the Kingdom of Japan we leave for
Liampo,

980 01:34:46,520 --> 01:34:49,160 the port on the Sea of the Kingdom of China.

981 01:34:49,280 --> 01:34:52,240 One Sunday morning we set off, against the wind,
against the tide,

982 01:34:52,360 --> 01:34:54,200 against the monsoon, against reason

983 01:34:54,320 --> 01:34:56,760 and with no memory of the dangers of the sea.

984 01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:02,960 Will you deny that he who conquers does not
steal?

985 01:35:04,080 --> 01:35:06,360 Who can't kill?

986 01:35:06,480 --> 01:35:09,720 Who does not scandalize?

987 01:35:09,840 --> 01:35:11,880 Who covets does not steal?

988 01:35:12,000 --> 01:35:14,600 Who oppresses does not tyrannize?

989 01:35:21,320 --> 01:35:24,520 All these things are said of you

990 01:35:25,880 --> 01:35:32,160 and so God lets go of your hands,

991 01:35:32,280 --> 01:35:39,280 giving license to the waves of the sea to drown
you under them...

992 01:35:42,200 --> 01:35:45,560 Blessed be your patience, O Lord

993 01:35:45,680 --> 01:35:49,440 who suffers seeing people on earth who speak so
well of you

994 01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:51,440 and uses your law so little,

995 01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:55,680 like these wretched and blind people who think
that stealing and preaching

996 01:35:55,800 --> 01:35:56,960 can satisfy you

997 01:35:57,080 --> 01:35:59,480 as to the tyrant princes who rule the earth.

998 01:36:00,600 --> 01:36:04,040 Go to the deep concave of the smoke house,

999 01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:06,520 where, with pity, perpetually dying

1000 01:36:06,640 --> 01:36:10,160 without finishing dying, you will pay without
ever finishing paying,

1001 01:36:10,280 --> 01:36:12,680 the rigorous justice of the High Lord.
1002 01:36:19,680 --> 01:36:23,480 Show, Lord, by figures of the Earth,

1003 01:36:23,600 --> 01:36:26,040 to us, wretches,

1004 01:36:26,160 --> 01:36:29,000 the way that leads us to imitate you

1005 01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:31,720 and we can follow in your footsteps,

1006 01:36:31,840 --> 01:36:35,120 so that at the ultimate end of our yawn,

1007 01:36:35,240 --> 01:36:38,280 Let us see you joyful in the house of the Sun.

1008 01:36:57,320 --> 01:37:01,720 In the parts of China I was always busy
gathering goods from the earth,

1009 01:37:01,840 --> 01:37:05,280 which was what I intended, but I always hit
lose.

1010 01:37:06,120 --> 01:37:08,040 And, from the money I had from Japan,

1011 01:37:08,160 --> 01:37:11,440 I lent it all to Father Master Francisco Xavier.

1012 01:37:14,480 --> 01:37:15,480 But as God,

1013 01:37:15,600 --> 01:37:17,400 whose secrets no one can guess,

1014 01:37:17,520 --> 01:37:20,240 it was not served that the blessed priest
entered China,

1015 01:37:20,360 --> 01:37:24,360 to be able to spread the Faith of Christ, gave
him death on the Island of Sanchon,

1016 01:37:25,400 --> 01:37:26,480 which was on a Saturday,

1017 01:37:26,600 --> 01:37:31,440 on the second day of December in the year 1552,
at midnight.

1018 01:37:31,560 --> 01:37:35,760 And I, with nothing, had to return to the
Kingdom of Japan.

1019 01:38:09,120 --> 01:38:13,200 The Lord of the Island of Tanegashima, named
Tokitaka,

1020 01:38:13,320 --> 01:38:16,120 I really wanted to know the secret of how the
rifles are made,

1021 01:38:16,240 --> 01:38:19,400 which were quite necessary for justice and
command

1022 01:38:19,520 --> 01:38:21,400 he had on that island.

1023 01:38:21,520 --> 01:38:25,640 Then he commanded his tollman, named Kimbey
Kiosada,

1024 01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:28,880 that at all costs the secret would reach.

1025 01:38:29,000 --> 01:38:32,040 One day, Kiosada came to our merchant ship

1026 01:38:32,160 --> 01:38:35,440 and with him came also a maiden of rare beauty,
1027 01:38:35,560 --> 01:38:40,520 which in the language of Japan is said
utsukushii, who was called Wakasa,

1028 01:38:40,640 --> 01:38:42,440 and that she was his daughter.

1029 01:40:11,560 --> 01:40:14,680 And here they came to stop my services of 21
years,

1030 01:40:14,800 --> 01:40:17,800 in which I was 13 times captive and 16 times
sold,

1031 01:40:17,920 --> 01:40:20,240 because of the unfortunate successes

1032 01:40:20,360 --> 01:40:23,680 that behind, in the course of this long
pilgrimage of mine,

1033 01:40:23,800 --> 01:40:25,600 wide I leave count.

1034 01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:30,800 I give many thanks to the King of Heaven, who
willed that through this way

1035 01:40:30,920 --> 01:40:33,880 if his divine will be done in me,

1036 01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:36,160 and I don't complain about the kings of the
earth,

1037 01:40:36,280 --> 01:40:39,480 for I deserved no more for my great sins.

1038 01:40:47,520 --> 01:40:53,080 It's time to go

1039 01:40:53,200 --> 01:40:58,160 Goodbye, Goa brunettes

1040 01:40:58,280 --> 01:41:04,680 It's time to come back I miss you

1041 01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:09,920 My love of Lisbon

1042 01:41:10,040 --> 01:41:15,600 Before the night comes

1043 01:41:15,720 --> 01:41:21,200 Coming from the world cable

1044 01:41:21,320 --> 01:41:27,640 Taking lives by chance The weak and the strong

1045 01:41:27,760 --> 01:41:32,680 From top and bottom

1046 01:41:32,800 --> 01:41:39,320 I bring a dancer's way That despite everything
dances

1047 01:41:39,440 --> 01:41:44,360 In my wandering eye

1048 01:41:44,480 --> 01:41:48,080 In the depths of the sea
