Era Um Redondo Vocábulo

It Was a Round Word

Era Um Redondo Vocábulo

The word was roundEra redondo o vocábulo
A wild sumUma soma agreste
Waves were revealedRevelavam-se ondas
In tiny fingersEm maninhos dedos
Pulp your hairPolpas seus cabelos
Residues of homeResíduos de lar

On Laura's stepsNos degraus de Laura
The ink fellA tinta caía
On the empty furnitureNo móvel vazio
Summoning splintersConvocando farpas
Calling the phoneChamando o telefone
Killing cockroachesMatando baratas
The fury grewA fúria crescia

Crying for revengeClamando vingança
On Laura's stepsNos degraus de Laura
In the dance roomNo quarto das danças
In the street the boysNa rua os meninos
Played and LauraBrincavam e Laura
In the waiting roomNa sala de espera
Still the air educatesInda o ar educa
