Soneto do Amor Como Um Rio

This infinite love of a year does
That is greater than time and than everything
This love that is real, and yet
I no longer believed it existed anymore.

This love that arose unsuspected
And that within the drama became peaceful
This love that is the tomb where lies
My body forever buried.

This love of mine is like a river; a river
Nocturnal, endless and late
Sliding gently through the wilderness...

And that in its sidereal course takes me
Illuminated by passion in the darkness
To the endless space of a boundless sea.
