TREASURE
TESOURO
O homem quem gasta a vida
Procurando um tesouro
Perde aquêle que deixou
Atrás
Não sabendo
Eu sou os raios dourados
do sol
meus olhos lapis lazuli
e meus labios rubis de sangue vermelho
meu coração opalas puros
brilhando reflexões na luz
da minha malancolia
TREASURE
The man who spends a lifetime
Looking for a treasure,
Loses the true one he left behind
not knowing.
I am the golden rays
of the sun
my eyes lapis lazuli
and my lips of
rubies crimson blood
my heart pure opals shining
reflections in the light
of my melancholy
I am your lost treasure

Am I on drugs? A curious work, but I could swear I've read it somewhere before. wesley

You are...
indeed, a lost treasure. The emotion shows clearly. A little lighter tone than usual, but that is what I have been longing to see from you. ~ Gee
