Com medo - Afraid

Com medo, corri,
Tropecei, assustado, caí.

Ressabiado esperei,

Esperei, mas não vi.

Pensei, esqueci.

Desagasalhado chorei,

Contrariado, calei.

Em silêncio fiquei,

Mudo ouvi e bati,

Entrei, me perdi.

No escuro não te vi,

Como bêbado, trôpego, caí.

Entre sorrisos me perdi,

Perdido amei, sofri e chorei.

Vivido, desiludido, morri.

Sofrendo de amor sorri,

Com medo, apanhei.

Apanhei e não entendi,

Entreguei-me ao persistir,

Abandonado desisti.

Afraid


Scared, I ran,
I did stumble, frightened, I fell.
Distrustful, I waited,
I waited, but I did not see you.
I thought then, I forgot.

Naked, I cried,
Annoyed, I did shut up.
I kept silent,
Mute I heard and I knocked,
I got in, I found myself lost.

In the darkness I didn´t see you,
As a drunk, stumbling, I fell.
Among smiles I lost myself,
Lost, I fell in love, I suffered and wept.
Lived, disillusioned, I died.

Suffering by love I did laugh,
Afraid, I was spanked.
I was bitten up and did not understood it,
I gave myself to the persist,
Abandoned by it, I did quit.
