PRESENT IN THE DISTANCE

In the escape of forbidden days

In adventures drawn by the wind

In secrets whispered in half-light

And in mischief that stole our laughter

Time slipped away...

The fluids of memory murmur

Every instant that was ours

Every shadow and every light

Lead me to you, relentless,

Even when I don't see you.

A PROPÓSITO DOS MEUS 51

Cada palavra, 

Cada frase,

Cada mensagem recebida,

Todas 

Plumas perfumadas de carinho

Merecem curta resposta:

Muit'obrigado!

PRESENTE NA DISTÂNCIA

Na fuga dos dias proibidos  

Nas aventuras desenhadas pelo vento  

Nos segredos murmurados à meia-luz  

E nas travessuras que roubaram risos  

Escorreu o tempo...  

Os fluídos da memória sussurram  

Cada instante que foi nosso  

Cada sombra e cada luz  

Me levam a ti, incessante,  

Mesmo quando não te vejo.

LOST BOAT

It wanders,

On a wide and forgotten beach,

Beyond Maputo, 

It wanders


It wanders  

Under the wind that stretches.  

The lost boat wanders,  

In search of work,  

In a vast sea.  


It wanders,  

The forgotten boat of a hungry man,  

In search of scarce fish.  

It wanders,  


The damp wind  

From the wide Indian Ocean,  

Calling men to work.  

It wanders,  


The sleeping life in the boat,  

Lost in time!
