Pequeno Perfil de Um Cidadão Comum

Belchior Belchior

Little Profile of a Common Citizen

He was a regular guy
Like the ones you see on the street
Talking about business, laughing
Watching a nude woman show
Living the day and not the Sun
The night and not the Moon

He always woke up early
He was an urban bird
Boarding the subway
Our metropolitan
He was a man of good manners
Excuse me
It was a mistake

He was like those honest, good, and moved people
Who walk towards death thinking about winning in life
He was like those honest, good, and moved people
Who have at the end of the afternoon the feeling
Of a mission accomplished
He believed in God
And in other invisible things
He always said yes to his infallible masters
Well, having money, there are no impossible things

But the Lord's angel
Of whom the Holy Book speaks
Descended from heaven for a beer, next to him, in his corner
And death carried him, like a package, in its cloak

He was like those honest, good, and moved people
Who walk towards death thinking about winning in life
He was like those honest, good, and moved people
Who have at the end of the afternoon the feeling
Of a mission accomplished

May the earth be light upon him
