Bagagem de porão

Bagagem de porão

 

Véspera de feriado,

toda a gente em festa

e tu como uma mala,

magoada, perdida, abandonada,

às voltas no tapete rolante

do teu aeroporto para voos domésticos.

Checked baggage

 

Holiday's eve,

everyone is celebrating

and you, like a suitcase,

hurt, lost, abandoned,

going round and round on the baggage carousel

of your domestic flights airport.

 

in Plantas de interior (2019)

Translation: Paul Samuelson

Bagage en soute

 

Veille de vacances,

tout le monde fait la fête

et toi, telle une valise,

blessée, perdue, abandonnée,

tournant sur le tapis roulant

de ton aéroport pour vols intérieurs.

Ruimbagage

 

Vooravond van de vakantie,

iedereen viert feest

en jij, als een koffer,

gekwetst, verloren, achtergelaten,

je draait rondjes op de bagageband

van je luchthaven voor binnenlandse vluchten.
