Emoções e Sentimentos

A tua irmã é pequena,
Quando tiver tua idade,
Transferirei minha pena
Ou fico só com metade?

A tua irmã é pequena,
Quando tiver tua idade,
Transferirei minha pena
Ou fico só com metade?

Vem cá dizer-me que sim.
Ou vem dizer-me que não.
Porque sempre vens assim
P’ra ao pé do meu coração.

Sob estas árvores ou aquelas árvores
        Conduzi a dança,
Conduzi a dança, ninfas singelas
        Até ao amplo gozo
Que tomais da vida. Conduzi a dança
        E sê quase humanas
Com o vosso gozo derramado em ritmos
        Em ritmos solenes
Que a nossa alegria torna maliciosos
        Para nossa triste
Vida que não sabe sob as mesmas árvores
        Conduzir a dança...

Levas a mão ao cabelo
Num gesto de quem não crê.
Mas eu não te disse nada.
Duvidas de mim? Porquê?

Vida, morte,
Riso, pranto
É o manto
Que me cobre.
Natureza,
Amor, beleza,
Tudo quanto
A alma descobre.

O Mistério
Deste mundo
Teu profundo
Olhar leu;
D'além dele —
Cerra a alma
De pavor! —
Venho eu.
Nada, nada
Já acalma
Tua dor.
Tu bem sabes
Ser minha voz
Mais atroz
De mudo horror
No que não diz,
E só tu sentes
E compreendes.
Cerra, infeliz
Cerra a (tua) alma
Ao meu pavor!

(Fausto, com os olhos fechados, encolhido na cadeira, treme como que dum grande frio.)

I had a self and life
        Before this life and self.
When the moon makes woods rife
        With possible fay or elf,
There comes in me a dreaming
That is like a light gleaming
        Somewhere in me away,
On seas that I have known
And placeless lands that own
        Another kind of day.

I dream, and as a blast
        Fans into fire an ember,
My heart gleams with a past
        That I cannot remember.
And as the ember's glowing
Is not fire but fire's showing,
        I waste the empty pelf
Of my mute sense of me.
As rain within the sea
        I fade within myself.

There are mazes of I.
        I am my unknown being.
I have, I know not why,
        Another kind of seeing
(Other than this vain vision
That is my soul's division
        From what girds sight about)
Where to see is to know,
Whose life is faith, and woe
        Fled by the hand of Doubt.

My life has happy hours:
        'Tis when I feel not living;
And, as the scent of flowers
        Round flowers a flower‑soul weaving
That is a corporate spirit,
From myself I inherit,
        My soul's blood's spirit‑air,
A foreself and inself
Which is the being‑pelf
        That with God's loss I share.

Let them speak ill of me. I do not care
Why shouldst thou care that fairer art than I?
My lips so oft have rested on thy hair,
So oft on thy lips, and so oft
On thy white arms that yet pretend to lie
On my dreams cushions like a vague thing soft...

Let them speak. Life is sweet if thy lips mean
Life. Love is sweet if thou art love.
The scorners cannot know what kisses screen
Our throbbing heart from heart nor prove
That full possession our mad love can scene
With perverse actions like an empire's end
That sinks among the galleys and doth blend
Its sunset with the landscape's emerald green.

Let them speak. Put thy hand within my hand
And let us love as maid and boy are said
To love. But we are none and love is red
On our hot souls thrill and understand.
Oh, to thy bed!

Oh to thy bed, fairer than maidens' couches
And curtained over with strange care for strangeness,
Let's to thy bed and kiss naked while touches
Selected from our hotter dreams transcend
Lust with thought lust acted upon our frames.
The magic misery of our wedded names
Shall light the future with impassioned strangeness.

Antinous!

The sky is a great turquoise shining glee,
All the earth is gathered up in the blue sea
Ev'n the green fields tend thereto in their joy,
The whole day playeth like a happy boy
Among the dales the hours build with their glee.

How happy, had I no cares, would I be!

But there is too much sorrow in mere seeing
The feminine disease of consciousness
Eats like a worm into the source of being.
The very thought I live gives me distress.
My heart is felt by me like some heavy place.

Me concedam os deuses lá do alto
Da sua calma que não custa ou serve
        Ter uma vida tal qual eles
        Se fossem homens a teriam...
Dominando desejos e esperanças
Não para ser comprado pelas ínguas

O heavy day that comes with so much glee
Out of the East.
It turquoises the silence of the sea
And makes a feast
Of blueness of the waves that shiver and flee.

O heavy day because my love hath gone
And taken away
His white arms and his lips like poppies grown
Athwart that day
When I first saw him and felt my heart moan.

My hands are stretched towards his coming, and
He cometh not.
He seems a woman and his gesturing hand
Too oft bath wrought
Dreams of strange vice with him through my heart's sand.

He is scarce more than a child. His body is white,
His arms lie bare
Across my neck and cling like a delight
Of which my share
Is painful like a far sail in the night.

Oh, love, return! All this is dreams of thee
Return and wake
My trembling frame to that vile misery
That love doth take
For his body when the lovers are such as we.

Golden‑haired boy that cannot love me so
As I love him,
Look, life is short, our lips fade... Ay, I know
I am ugly and dim
But love a little or seem... Love me and go
Yet love ere going, and then let me dream
On what was real while life fades and goes slow...

Quando me deste os bons-dias
Deste-mos como a qualquer.
Mais vale não dizer nada
Do que assim nada dizer.

Dói viver, nada sou que valha ser.
Tardo-me porque penso e tudo rui.
Tento saber, porque tentar é ser.
Longe de isto ser tudo, tudo flui.

Mágoa que, indiferente, faz viver.
Névoa que, diferente, em tudo influi.
O exílio nada do que foi sequer
Ilude, fixa, dá, faz ou possui.

Assim, nocturna, a áreas indecisas,
O prelúdio perdido traz à mente
O que das ilhas mortas foi só brisas,

E o que a memória análoga dedica
Ao sonho, e onde, lua na corrente,
Não passa o sonho e a água inútil fica.

Frescura do que é regado,
Por onde a água inda verte...
Quero dizer-te um bocado
Do que não ouso dizer-te.

O mistério dos olhos e do olhar
Do sujeito e do objecto, transparente
Ao horror que além dele está; o mudo
Sentimento de se desconhecer,
E a confrangida comoção que nasce
De sentir a loucura do vazio;
O horror duma existência incompreendida
Quando à alma se chega desse horror
Faz toda a dor humana uma ilusão.
Essa é a suprema dor, a vera cruz.
Querem desdenhar o teu sentir orgulho
Oh, Cristo!

Então eu vejo — horror — a íntima alma,
O perene mistério que atravessa
Como um suspiro céus e corações.
