English to Portuguese: A Municipal Report. Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English A Municipal Report.
It was raining as I got off the train in Nashville, Tennessee -- a slow, gray rain. I was tired so I went straight to my hotel.
A big, heavy man was walking up and down in the hotel lobby. Something about the way he moved made me think of a hungry dog looking for a bone. He had a big, fat, red face and a sleepy expression in his eyes. He introduced himself as Wentworth Caswell -- Major Wentworth Caswell -- from "a fine southern family." Caswell pulled me into the hotels barroom and yelled for a waiter. We ordered drinks. While we drank, he talked continually about himself, his family, his wife and her family. He said his wife was rich. He showed me a handful of silver coins that he pulled from his coat pocket.
By this time, I had decided that I wanted no more of him. I said good night.
Translation - Portuguese Relatório Municipal.
Estava chovendo quando desci do trem em Nashville - Tennessee, uma chuva fina e cinzenta. Eu estava cansado e fui direto para o hotel.
Um homem grande e pesado caminhava para cima e para baixo no saguão do hotel. Algo na maneira como ele se movia me fez pensar em um cachorro faminto procurando um osso. Ele tinha um rosto grande, gordo e vermelho e uma expressão sonolenta nos olhos. Ele se apresentou como Wentworth Caswell, Major Wentworth Caswell, de "uma excelente família do sul". Caswell me puxou para o bar do hotel e gritou por um garçom. Pedimos bebidas. Enquanto bebíamos, ele falava continuamente sobre si mesmo, sua família, sua esposa e a família dela. Ele disse que sua esposa era rica e me mostrou um punhado de moedas de prata que tirou do bolso do casaco.
A essa altura, eu havia decidido que não queria mais ficar perto dele. E dei boa noite.
