Solitude
In its gentle and peaceful flight
To the rhythm of the sound in romance,
Love got me drunk in the morning.
At the morning sound of the rooster
My soul barely touched the ground,
I was drunk on you oh Love!
You barely passed, I passed away
But when evening came!
The freshness of silence knocked on my door
The sweetness of regret sifted my memories
Like the morning rooster, I cry out
My cry of distress disappears in the waves
The raging and contrary waves
In the evenings, my ship capsizes
It loses it captain, his crew
Shipwrecked, by the river I sleep
Oh ! Loneliness, see, I submit to you
Alone, without strength, she shackles me
Loneliness, sweet and revealing
I submit freely
Loneliness, hard and clever
I surrender without embarrassment
Every sad evening, I wait for dawn
I wait for the sun to rise again
I wait for the rooster to sing again
To still pick the fruits of my passion
Passion that revolves around itself.
