AMAR - Carlos Drummond de Andrade

AMAR - Carlos Drummond de Andrade


Que pode uma criatura senão,
entre criaturas, amar?
amar e esquecer, amar e malamar,
amar, desamar, amar?
sempre, e até de olhos vidrados, amar?
Que pode, pergunto, o ser amoroso,
sozinho, em rotação universal, senão
rodar também, e amar?
amar o que o mar traz à praia,
o que ele sepulta, e o que, na brisa marinha,
é sal, ou precisão de amor, ou simples ânsia?
Amar solenemente as palmas do deserto,
o que é entrega ou adoração expectante,
e amar o inóspito, o áspero,
um vaso sem flor, um chão de ferro,
e o peito inerte, e a rua vista em sonho,
e uma ave de rapina.
Este o nosso destino: amor sem conta,
distribuído pelas coisas pérfidas ou nulas,
doação ilimitada a uma completa ingratidão,
e na concha vazia do amor à procura medrosa,
paciente, de mais e mais amor.
Amar a nossa falta mesma de amor,
e na secura nossa, amar a água implícita,
e o beijo tácito, e a sede infinita.


Carlos Drummond de Andrade

The Band and Friends - I Shall Be Released

The Band and Friends - I Shall Be Released

They say ev'rything can be replaced,

Yet ev'ry distance is not near.

So I remember ev'ry face

Of ev'ry man who put me here.

I see my light come shining

From the west unto the east.

Any day now, any day now,

I shall be released.

They say ev'ry man needs protection,

They say ev'ry man must fall.

Yet I swear I see my reflection

Some place so high above this wall.

I see my light come shining

From the west unto the east.

Any day now, any day now,

I shall be released.

Standing next to me in this lonely crowd,

Is a man who swears he's not to blame.

All day long I hear him shout so loud,

Crying out that he was framed.

I see my light come shining

From the west unto the east.

Any day now, any day now,

I shall be released.

Bonnie Prince Billy - Lay And Love

Bonnie Prince Billy - Lay And Love

From what I've seen, you're magnificent You fight evil with all you do
Your every act is spectacular
It makes me lay here and love you
From what I hear, you are generous
You make sunshine and glory too
When you walk in things go luminous
It makes me lay here and love you
From what I know, you're terrified
You have mistrust running through you
Your smile is hiding something hurtful
It makes me lay here and love you
It makes me lay here and love you
I'm filled with violet and red and blue
I have a feeling from what I do
That you might lay there and love me too

Clarice Lispector - Fragmento

- Você tinha me dito que, quando me perguntassem meu nome eu não disesse Lóri, mas "Eu". Pois só agora eu me chamo "Eu". 


E digo: Eu está apaixonada pelo teu eu. Então nós é. Ulisses, nós é original.  CLARICE LISPECTOR

Noites brancas

Que seu céu, seja luminoso, que seja claro e sereno seu gentil sorriso, e abençoada seja você mesma pelo minuto de felicidade e de ventura que deu a um outro coração solitário, reconhecido! 
Ah ! meu Deus ! Um minuto inteiro de felicidade ! Mas não é o bastante para toda uma vida de um homem ?

I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day
We can be Heroes, just for one day

And you, you can be mean
And I, I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact
Yes we're lovers, and that is that

Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time, just for one day
We can be Heroes, for ever and ever
What d'you say?

I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, for ever and ever
Oh we can be Heroes, just for one day

I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be Heroes, just for one day
We can be us, just for one day

I, I can remember (I remember)
Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
And the guns, shot above our heads (over our heads)
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing
could fall)
And the shame, was on the other side
Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
Then we could be Heroes, just for one day

We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be Heroes

We're nothing, and nothing will help us
Maybe we're lying, then you better not stay
But we could be safer, just for one day

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, just for one day

Eu acho engraçado
Quando um certo alguém
Se aproxima de mim
Trazendo exuberância
Que me extasia

Meus olhos sentem
Minhas mãos transpiram
É um amor que eu guardo há muito
Dentro em mim
E é a voz do coração que canta assim
Assim

Olha, somente um dia
Longe dos teus olhos
Trouxe a saudade do amor tão perto
E o mundo inteiro fez-se tão tristonho

Mas embora agora eu tenha perto
Eu acho graça do meu pensamento
A conduzir o nosso amor discreto
Sim, amor discreto pra uma só pessoa
Pois nem de leve sabes que eu te quero
E me apraz essa ilusão à toa

Paul Verlaine

Il pleure dans mon coeur
Comme il pleut sur la ville ;
Quelle est cette langueur
Qui pénètre mon coeur ?

Ô bruit doux de la pluie
Par terre et sur les toits !
Pour un coeur qui s'ennuie,
Ô le chant de la pluie !

Il pleure sans raison
Dans ce coeur qui s'écoeure.
Quoi ! nulle trahison ?...
Ce deuil est sans raison.

C'est bien la pire peine
De ne savoir pourquoi
Sans amour et sans haine
Mon coeur a tant de peine !

Paul Verlaine

Pensamentos

All of us, from time to time, need a plunge into freedom and novelty, after which routine and discipline will seem delightful by contrast, 
................................................. Andre Maurois


We do not live an equal life, but one of contrasts and patchwork; now a little joy, then a sorrow, now a sin, then a generous or brave action.

In my painting of the 'All -Night Cafe' I've tried to express the idea that the cafe is a place where one can ruin oneself, become crazy and criminal.

....................................Vincent van Gogh


There is no quality in this world that is not what it is merely by contrast. 
Nothing exists in itself. 
.........................................Herman Melville


It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. 
Old age is life's parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. 
Death does away with time.
.................................................Simone de Beauvoir


There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast.
............................... Charles Dickens


As a means of contrast with the sublime, the grotesque is, in our view, the richest source that nature can offer. 
....................Victor Hugo


They say I leave at night by the window of my tower, hanging from a red umbrella with which I set fire to the forest!
