THE SOUL OF A POET
Antônio Carlos Rocha
I'm a king without a kingdom,
no scepter, no princess,
a knight errant
during the day
following the clouds
and whom the splendor of the night
is led to the charm of the stars.
.
I stop to hear my name
said by tender lips;
to leave kisses verses,
and take a hair
as a simple reminder
of a moonlight body.
My destiny is to travel
by distant universes
never chosing
an special being to live.
I am the spark that lives
in a soul of a poet.

ALMA DE POETA
Antônio Carlos Rocha
Sou um rei sem reino,
sem cetro, sem princesa,
um cavaleiro errante
que durante o dia
segue as nuvens
e no esplendor da noite
se deixa conduzir
pelo encanto das estrelas.
.
Paro ao ouvir meu nome
dito por lábios ternos;
deixo beijos de versos,
e levo um fio de cabelo
como singela lembrança
de um corpo enluarado.
- Meu destino é viajar
- por universos distantes
- sem nunca repousar
- numa existência predileta.
- Eu sou a centelha que vive
- numa alma de poeta
