ATTEMPT – Translated on May 21, 2021

 

While time passes, we don’t realize

And when it is over, we complain

What would happen to us

If ever the clock stopped ticking???

We never dedicate much to it,

But we beg for a little something,

Waiting for tomorrow, in the search for perfection

In the search for a perhaps...

Leading life throughout the world,

Seeing this and that imperfection

Smelling this and that sweet scent

In the daily class of contemplation

Of a future overcharged

With hovering mysteries

Seeding over us the eternity of being.

 

HERE YOU GO THE ORIGINAL FROM MY

POET FRIEND, NAMED BELOS.

TENTATIVA

Quando o tempo passa, não notamos
E quando ele já foi, reclamamos
O que seríamos se o relógio parasse???
Não dedicamos o muito, mas suplicamos o pouco
Na espera do amanhã, somos a busca da perfeição
Buscando o talvez...
No mundo, tocando a vida
Vendo aquela imperfeição
Sentindo o perfume
Na classe diária a contemplação
De um futuro carregado
De mistérios voando
Semeando a eternidade do ser.
