EMILY ( POETICAL DELIRIUM )

A Poem by The Brazilian Poet
"

How I feel Emily's death! No word to say, sorry...

"
Three times I called her aloud:
Emily, Emily, Emily - where are you?
I had no answer to my despaired calling
I only heard the chanting of the birds
The murmur of the river, nothing else...

I walked into the jungle for a long time
I hurt myself with thorns, and many snakes
They ran  after me, and the monkeys
They looked at me with deep mistrust:
Of course I was not in my kingdom...

But Emily suddenly disappeared from home
And before to go to the jungle, I looked for her
In all the places, in all the corner - but she
Simply disappeared as the sun when
The dark night with its nightmare has come!

Emily, Emily, Emily - where are you?
Why did you vanish? Why don't you answer me?
Do you want to make me mad? O Yes,
Do you want me to commit suicide?
Do you want me to hang myself on a tree?

Ah! Emily, Ah! My sweet Emily: don't go away
From my imagination: you are my muse!
What will I do without you in my life - sweet dream,
Sweet woman, in your grave I sleep dear
Me and my vodka, we sleep together, beside you...
