I'd like to read
one of the poems
that drove me into poetry
I can't remember one line
or where to look
The same thing
happened with money
girls and late evenings of talk
Where are the poems
that led me away
from everything I loved
to stand here
naked with the thought of finding thee
Leonard Cohen
[LC-Homepage]
Gostava de ler
um daqueles poemas
que me levaram à poesia
Nem um verso me lembra
nem onde foi
E o mesmo se passa
com o dinheiro as mulheres
e as noitadas de conversa
Onde vão os poemas
que me apartaram
de tudo o que amava
para sobrar aqui
nu com o sonho de Vos achar
(Trad. A.M.)
