Lyrics
Poema Patético
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Que barulho é esse na escada?
É o amor que está acabando,
é o homem que fechou a porta
e se enforcou na cortina.
Que barulho é esse na escada?
É Guiomar que tapou os olhos
e se assoou com estrondo.
É a lua imóvel sobre os pratos
e os metais que brilham na copa.
Que barulho é esse na escada?
É a torneira pingando água,
é o lamento imperceptível
de alguém que perdeu no jogo
enquanto a banda de música
vai baixando, baixando de tom.
Que barulho é esse na escada?
É a virgem com um trombone,
a criança com um tambor,
o bispo com uma campainha
e alguém abafando o rumor
que salta do meu coração
