Joe Biden named Kamala Harris, a senator from California, as his running-mate. The daughter of a Jamaican-American economist and an Indian-American cancer researcher, she is the first black woman or Asian-American on a major-party presidential ticket. Democrats largely praised her as a safe, charismatic choice, though some queried her respect for civil liberties, noting her record as a tough-on-crime prosecutor.
Translation - Portuguese
Joe Biden escolheu Kamala Harris, senadora pela Califórnia, para sua chapa. Filha de um economista de origem jamaicana e uma pesquisadora de câncer de origem indiana, ela é a primeira mulher negra e asiático-americana a concorrer na chapa de um dos principais partidos dos Estados Unidos. Os democratas em sua maioria elogiaram-na como sendo carismática e uma escolha segura, mas alguns criticaram o respeito dela por liberdades civis, devido ao histórico dela como uma procuradora dura contra o crime.

SONETO DE FIDELIDADE

De tudo, ao meu amor serei atento
Antes, e com tal zelo, e sempre, e tanto
Que mesmo em face do maior encanto
Dele se encante mais meu pensamento.

Quero vivê-lo em cada vão momento
E em louvor hei de espalhar meu canto
E rir meu riso e derramar meu pranto
Ao seu pesar ou seu contentamento.

E assim, quando mais tarde me procure
Quem sabe a morte, angústia de quem vive
Quem sabe a solidão, fim de quem ama

Eu possa me dizer do amor (que tive):
Que não seja imortal, posto que é chama
Mas que seja infinito enquanto dure.
Translation - English
Sonnet of Fidelity

Above all, I shall keep my love in mind
with such everlasting attentive care
That all my thoughts will to love be confined,
and the greatest spell lead to no affair

I will live my love each day, vain or plain
In its honor, I’ll loudly praise and chant
and laugh, and weep, and feel its bliss and pain
and myself to my love’s fortunes enchant.

And so, when the day comes that I must meet
Perhaps death, angst of the living; perchance
Solitude, every lover’s ill fate

I may say of (my) love: perpetuate
not the flame, for it withers, but romance —
May it be infinite while there is heat.

Bio

I am a fully bilingual Brazilian-American translator with over five years' experience in translation, proofreading, localization, and MTPE. I am specialized in forestry, environmental, and marketing translation.

I completed my Bachelor's degree in Brazil, majoring in History. In Brazil, I also completed a two-year specialization course in translation at Brasillis, a leading translation school. Then I moved to Sweden to pursue an MA in politics and society, specializing in Swedish forest policy.

Besides translating between Brazilian Portuguese and English, I also translate from Swedish and German into English or Portuguese. I work mainly with Trados Studio 2021 but am familiar with other CAT Tools.
