Universe’s Organ (Órgão do Universo)

(Mauricio Patitucci/ Guilherme De Marco)



Universe’s Organ

A feeling body

Disperse darkness

A coming night




Universe’s body

One breathing

The transverse blow

The sound in the air



Submerged body

Reflecting moon

Inward silence

Abadir's stone fire


Abstained body

Intonating voice

Pure vastness

Of ocean’s waves



Unconverted organ

Undivided being

All verses in one

Nothing to come



Uncontroversial being

Outside the abbey

Every verse’s beautiness

Spreads in the air



How everything exists

I just can’t tell

I know that unexist

Just being



Nothing I am

Nothing but the fire

A singed life

Of love’s flame

Abode (Morada)

(Guilherme De Marco)





Walking up the street

Time passes by

Getting to the square

Of naked stones



A dry glow

Of sun and rain

Black and white

With living colors



Doesn’t even remember

The golden light

Through the fog

The walks

The looks from the balconies


Flower of smoke, solemn morning

Happiness for those fearless



Life and death

Passion, tiredness

Stone in your shoe

Nerves of steel


In a city

Inebriated

Sparks the drizzle

It is dawn already



Nobody wakes me up

No one wants anything


I turn a page

Of lopsided houses



Another sun goes down

Sad picture

Taste of champagne

Anguish cures me


On day, on time

In May or September

If the stones bleed and sing

I don't remember...



And life keeps carrying us

And we keep on learning



Elsewhere
Another moonlight

Maybe some day I will remember...

Migrant (Retirante)
(Maurício Patitucci - Guilherme De Marco - Erik Haagensen)


Beautiful day the city swallows
Beauty goes and I drink one more sip

While I crawl through the asphalt

I came stumbling from the north

Paperboard heats me up and the sidewalk is my home
Paperboard heats me up and the sidewalk is my home

Escaping from drought that comes in an instant

In the night I continue to spin
Swallowing the smoke on the air
Swallowing the smoke on the air

I inspire the city that comes from the ground

Clouds to lock me up

In the moon that for all of us reflects in vain

I kiss the dust of the street (until it ends)

Remains of freedom deceive

Coin exchanges me without face
Caresses that worth the fuck
Exhales smell of burned bush

An avenue that only goes at thousand miles


Caracara* calls me
To spin in flames
Caracara calls me
To spin in flames

In the carcass I drag with myself
I fade an afflicted glance
Depleting my blood in drains
Navigating life any direction
Heart snaps me in the chest
Consummated only this day


Dying (too far from compassion)
Disappearing (too far from somewhere)
Dying (too far from compassion)
Disappearing (too far from somewhere)

* (Bird of prey)

Waltz (Valsa)




And so if you think

That I forgot you

You are mistaken



Because here

In the darkness of night

I want you

So much and more than I ever wanted you

Before


Ah, if you were

As free as

I am now


You would not speak

Any word to me

Because I know

You feel me oh woman


I hug you and kiss you

And look you with no hush

To rest myself in your bed

Lady


I caress your hair

I press you in my chest

I feel you in my blood

You that are my breathing


I want you in the shelter

And I want you in the dew

You that are my smile

You that are my charm

Lady


With no hour to return

I lose myself in now

In your look I rest

Without time

Lady
