Don't Let Me Sleep (*)

Don't Let Me Sleep (*)
Don't let me sleep in this unfinished vigil
Don't let me land on your gaze transhumance
Sparse the wall
An anticipated place
("who never loved does not deserve to be loved")
The rain grammar traces the helplessness porch
Don't let me sleep in this unfinished vigil
Innocence's refuge
Melancholy watercolour fado
("who never loved does not deserve to be loved")

///

Não me deixes dormir nesta vigília inacabada
Não me deixes pousar na transumância do teu olhar
Esparsa a muralha
Um lugar antecipado
("quem nunca amou não merece ser amado")
A gramática das chuvas traceja o pórtico de desamparo
Não me deixes dormir nesta vigília inacabada
Refúgio de uma inocência
Melancolia aguarela fado
("quem nunca amou não merece ser amado")
