Soneto de Separação

Tom Jobim Tom Jobim

Separation Sonnet

Suddenly from laughter came tears
Silent and white like mist
And from united mouths came foam
And from splayed hands came astonishment

Suddenly from calm came the wind
That undid the last flame from the eyes
And from passion came premonition
And from the motionless moment came the drama

Suddenly, no more than suddenly
What was made lover turned sad
And what was content turned lonely

The close friend turned distant
Life became a wandering adventure
Suddenly, no more than suddenly
