Quando o poema tirar
O sujo das minhas roupas
Eu o lavarei sem palavras
E mudo distribuirei seu versos
Pelos varais de meus dias
Depois as palavras ao Sol
Talvez componha um poema seco
Para consolar as lavadeiras
Para consolar as lavadeiras
Quando o poema tirar
O sujo das minhas roupas
Eu o lavarei sem palavras
E mudo distribuirei seu versos
Pelos varais de meus dias
Depois as palavras ao Sol
Talvez componha um poema seco
Para consolar as lavadeiras
Para consolar as lavadeiras
Translation
When the poem removes
The dirt from my clothes
I will wash it without words
And silently distribute its verses
Along the clotheslines of my days
Then the words in the sun
Perhaps I will compose a dry poem
To console the washerwomen
To console the washerwomen
When the poem removes
The dirt from my clothes
I will wash it without words
And silently distribute its verses
Along the clotheslines of my days
Then the words in the sun
Perhaps I will compose a dry poem
To console the washerwomen
To console the washerwomen
