Soneto de Fidelidade

De tudo ao meu amor serei atento
Antes, e com tal zelo, e sempre, e tanto
Que mesmo em face do maior encanto
Dele se encante mais meu pensamento.

Quero vivê-lo em cada vão momento
E em seu louvor hei de espalhar meu canto
E rir meu riso e derramar meu pranto
Ao seu pesar ou seu contentamento

E assim, quando mais tarde me procure
Quem sabe a morte, angústia de quem vive
Quem sabe a solidão, fim de quem ama

Eu possa me dizer do amor (que tive):
Que não seja imortal, posto que é chama
Mas que seja infinito enquanto dure.
Vinícius de Moraes

meu poema favorito!

Tired

I've been through so much
I've lived through so much
I've seen way too much
now I'm tired...

There were blue skies and the rain
there was endless laughter and crying in vain
so much gained, then some passed, and some desired...
I'm tired...

There were things no one should see
there were things I told no one but me
things demanded, things followed and required...
I'm tired...

I've seen enough of the world as it is
I don't have to go further than this
but my adventure voucher hasn't expired...
and I am so tired...

from now on I'd like to have all I've aspired to
Free hand to do things I was inspired to
cause there's so much I've already acquired...
and I'm so tired...

I've enough of being so wired!
Give me a break!! I'm tired!
