A Voz [English translation]

Sometimes there is a voice that rises


Higher than the world and higher than us


And makes my eyes weep, when it sings


In tears that silence my voice

It plunges my senses and time


To the farthest point of who I am


And embraces that place, so gray


That lurks beneath the mist there

And calls out in my breast when I feel


The nearness of a sad face of a love


Higher than the world and higher than people


The voice is not a voice, it is called pain
