O sol nasce quase tão cedo
quanto o teu sorriso
na face ainda adormecida
aqui.
O sol aquece
quase tanto
o teu corpo
aqui.
Presente
diz-me aqui.

Your presence
is a constant flow
market full of people and goods,
the onions
the cassava, so white, as my skin

[your smile
is a negotiators one]

the peppers
the garlic small but strong,
your presence
is a constant flow,
shooting star
the sky so close to me.

karibu!
