The Miracle of the Roses André Gonçalves, c. 1735-40, Church of Menino Deus, Lisbon

They are Roses, my lord!

They are Roses, my lord!

What I bring in my lap

These are words of love

about the good deeds I do.

To the most needy

I distribute alms and bread

I make envious and the king angry

With my good heart.

Miraculously, the bread that was hidden

Turned into roses

King D. Dinis was surprised

I shut up petty and envious minds.

In a legend recorded on paper

I didn't worry about the expenses of the royal treasury

So the people proclaimed me holy saint Isabel

The queen of Portugal.
