Since a long time now
I don't remember my memories
I think they are winged
without weight nor shape
pieces watching me
abyss where I fall asleep.
Now I find them again
the puzzle becomes Portugal without promises
gains shape and weight
under the abyss of light
there is an uncertain sea
where I wake up.
penso-vos aladas
sem peso nem forma
pedaços a vigiar-me
abismo onde adormeço.
Agora reencontro-vos
o puzzle faz-se Portugal sem promessas
ganha forma e peso
sob o abismo de luz
há um mar incerto
onde desperto.
