Flor de Outono
Guilherme de Sá
Autumn Flower
I am not a flower to be left behind
Who are you, autumn
Daring not to water my leaves?
Forgive me, oh May summer
For not appreciating the equinox
It's just that I don't value
Those who take advantage of my ending
Where is the perfume of your sap?
You only stain the ground
While others slip on you
Don't blame me for your end
I am what remains of you
Your ending
A tree that bends, the wind does not break
If we were weak
You wouldn't be a flower
Nor would I exist
It's winter that kills me
By separating me from you
I leave you my dry leaf
So you understand
That only together
We return strong
