António Gomes Leal was a Portuguese poet. ^[1]

Leal was born in Rossio, part of Lisbon. He was the son of João António Gomes Leal (d. 1876), a customs officer, and Henrietta Fernandina Monteiro Alves Cabral Leal.

Leal studied literature, but did not complete his studies and became a notary clerk of Lisbon. During his youth he took the pose of a poet interested in Bohemianism and Satanism, but with the death of his mother in 1910, he fell into poverty and converted to Catholicism. ^[2]

In 1933 the Lisbon City Council honored the poet by naming a street after him in the Bairro do Arco do Cego, Areeiro parish.
