CHAIRS ON THE AIR

CHAIRS ON THE AIR
life slips through our fingers
there must have light and chairs to rest on the way
there must have love and time to love until the end
even though war famine disease and misery
call it fear
and destruction
life slips through our fingers
clasped hands don't save us
battlefields kill more and more
sooner
and faster
life slips through our fingers
and humanity has no time
nor patience
to bury us

///

CADEIRAS NO AR

a vida escorrega-nos pelos dedos
haja luz e cadeiras para descansar no caminho
haja amor e tempo para amar até ao fim
mesmo que a guerra a fome a doença e a miséria
lhe chamem medo
e destruição
a vida escorrega-nos pelos dedos
as mãos dadas não nos salvam
cs campos de batalha matam cada vez mais
mais cedo
e mais depressa
a vida escorre-nos pelos dedos
e a humanidade não tem tempo
nem paciência
para nos enterrar
