Descendo a Rua Solitude
outro dia
vi uma casa na
Travessa dos Amantes
que poderia ser minha

Porta vermelha
Clarabóia
duas cadeiras brancas
sentadas na varanda

Com a primavera
e um Coração de Leão
eu poderia plantar
margaridas

Mas é só janeiro
e ainda faz frio.


Coming down Solitude Street
the other day
I spotted a house
I could afford
on Lovers Lane

Red door
skylight
two white chairs
sitting on the porch

With spring
and a Lionheart in the air
I could grow daisies

But it's only January
and it's still too cold.

Comecei o dia
com banho frio
café requentado
poema dormido e

ônibus lotado -
Deus permita que
ao menos
eu tenha estrelas
mais tarde.

I started the day
with a cold shower
rewarmed coffee
a stale poem and
a crowded bus -
God grant I have stars
later.
