Ruínas

Se é sempre Outono o rir das primaveras,
Castelos, um a um, deixa-os cair...
Que a vida é um constante derruir
De palácios do Reino das Quimeras!


E deixa sobre as ruínas crescer heras.
Deixa-as beijar as pedras e florir!
Que a vida é um contínuo destruir
De palácios do Reino das Quimeras!


Deixa tombar meus rútilos castelos!
Tenho ainda mais sonhos para erguê-los
Mais altos do que as águias pelo ar!


Sonhos que tombam!Derrocada louca!
São como os beijos duma linda boca!
Sonhos!...Deixa-os tombar...deixa-os tombar...

Florbela Espanca

Wish you were here

So, so you think you can tell

Heaven from Hell,

blue skies from pain.

Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?

A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?

And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?How I wish, how I wish you were here.

We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,

Running over the same old ground.

What have you found?

The same old fears.

Wish you were here.
