this photo by Armando Taborda

I know a stone where I sit
by September shadow
and I will speak of sunflowers,
this almost sand flower
that side by side with the sun
from the weight of his loneliness does
the ardor
and glory of the summer great days.

///

Sei de uma pedra onde me sentar
à sombra de setembro
e vou falar dos girassóis,
essa flor quase de areia
que ombro a ombro com o sol
faz do peso da sua solidão
o ardor
e a glória dos grandes dias de verão.

by Eugénio de ANDRADE (1923-2005), in "O PESO DA SOMBRA", in Assírio & Alvim (uma chancela Porto Editora), 2015

Thanks, Christel! It's an idiomatic expression that means, "sunlight doesn't shine too long".
