pequeno poema, SEBASTIÃO DA GAMA

Pequeno Poema

Quando eu nasci,
ficou tudo como estava.

Nem homens cortaram veias,
nem o Sol escureceu,
nem houve estrelas a mais...
Somente,
esquecida das dores,
a minha Mãe sorriu e agradeceu.

Quando eu nasci,
não houve nada de novo
senão eu.

As nuvens não se espantaram,
não enlouqueceu ninguém...

Pra que o dia fosse enorme,
bastava
toda a ternura que olhava
nos olhos de minha Mãe...

Little Poem

When I was born,
everything was as it was.

Not even men cut veins,
nor did the sun darken,
there weren't even more stars ...
Only,
forgotten about the pain,
my mother smiled and thanked me.

When I was born,
there was nothing new
if not me.

The clouds were not surprised,
didn't drive anyone crazy ...

For the day to be huge,
it was enough
all the tenderness that looked
in my mother's eyes ...
