O Pai
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.
Um pai morto teria sido talvez
Um melhor pai. O preferível
É um pai nado-morto.
Não pára de crescer a erva sobre a fronteira.
A erva deve ser arrancada
De novo e de novo que cresce sobre a fronteira.
Gostaria que o meu pai tivesse sido um tubarão
Que tivesse despedaçado quarenta baleeiros
(E no seu sangue eu teria aprendido a nadar)
Minha mãe uma baleia azul meu nome Lautréamont
Morto em Paris
1871 desconhecido.
