CLII
in restless stemming days
light fragments expose the remains
of a country that existed in the wire winds
of those times nothing was left
neither the voice
nor the identity
or honour
when memory turns off
nothing survive
neither the homeland
///
nos dias que decorrem inquietos
fragmentos de luz expõem os restos
de um país que existiu no fio dos ventos
nada sobrou desses tempos
nem a voz
nem a identidade
nem a honra
quando se apaga a memória
não sobrevive nada
nem a pátria
