Como se o brilho das estrelas
no céu de azul aveludado
não chegasse, como se vê-las
não desse à noite o inesperado.
Minha alma era melancolia,
meu coração, inconsolável.
Minha coerência, perdi-a
ao aceitar o inegável.
Ouvindo a suave melodia
que afasta o mal do meu pensamento
consigo transformar em poesia
o que me antes deu dor e desalento.
Senti a lágrima, o pesar, a solidão, o aperto
no peito, a memória, lembrança indefinida.
O lamento, a alegria, o amor, o desconcerto
desta, algo incerta, a que se chama vida.

Forever and a day
I wish you could hear
every single beat of my heart,
you’d see it beats stronger
whenever you’re around.
It beats stronger, it beats longer
ever since you’ve been around.
I wish you could feel what I feel
when I say it’s for real.
You are truly the air I breathe
and you are the life in myself,
you are my hiding place,
you are my shield, you are my shell.
My biggest fear,
the one that haunts me
every second of my uncertain life
is losing you someday.
And I get scared,
and I gaze at the stars,
and I pray.
For you give me something special,
you guide me and I feel safe.
And I just wish it lasts forever
and a day.
