A Noite
Ivan Lins
The Night
The night has embroidered
On the bar towels
Harpooned hearts
Tortured hearts
Hearts hungover
Hearts too homeless
The night has spoken
On the bar chairs
Of drowned passions
Of rejected passions
Of senseless passions
Of passions aged too much
The ni...ght brings on the face signs
Of someone who has cried too much
The night has left
Its grudges engraved
With knife and razor
With pencil and razor
Inside people
Inside the toilets and more
Inside of me
