At first, well defined,Then in long ridges,Because she couldn’t move them anymore!...

Christmas Heart - photography by Suy / São Ludovino
«Il pleure dans mon coeurComme il pleut sur la ville.»
VerlaineDedicated to Vicente ArnosoGentle, gently I hear knocking on my door
As if someone was calling me.Is it the rain? Is it someone?Certainly it isn’t peopleAnd the rain doesn’t knock this way.
Perhaps it is the high wind; but just a while, a little while ago, Not a needle stirredIn the quiet melancholyOf the path pine trees…
Who does knock as light as thatWith such strange delicacy,Hardly heard, hardly felt?It isn’t people or rain And I’m sure it isn’t the wind.
I went to see. The snow was fallingFrom the gray-blue of the sky,White and light, white and cold… So long without seeing her!Heaven knows how I longed for her!
I see her through the window glass.She covered everything with the colour of linen.People are passing by, and when they go,Their footsteps stay behind, printed and tracedIn the whiteness of the path.
I look at those signsOf the poor people who goes on,And I notice among all the others,The miniature tracesOf a child little feet…
And bare, sore…The snow still lets me see them,At first, well defined,Then in long ridges,Because she couldn’t move them anymore!...
I accept that those who are sinnersMay suffer torments in life!But the children, my Lord,Why do you give them so much pain?!...Why do they suffer so utterly?!...
And an infinite sadness, A deep disturbanceEnters and stays stuck in me.Snow falls in NatureAnd falls in my heart.
Augusto Gil (1873-1929), Balada da Neve in Luar de Janeiro, 1909.
Batem leve, levemente, como quem chama por mim. Será chuva? Será gente? Gente não é, certamente e a chuva não bate assim.
É talvez a ventania: mas há pouco, há poucochinho, nem uma agulha bulia na quieta melancolia dos pinheiros do caminho...
Quem bate, assim, levemente, com tão estranha leveza, que mal se ouve, mal se sente? Não é chuva, nem é gente, nem é vento com certeza.
E descalcinhos, doridos... a neve deixa inda vê-los, primeiro, bem definidos, depois, em sulcos compridos, porque não podia erguê-los!...
Que quem já é pecador sofra tormentos, enfim! Mas as crianças, Senhor, porque lhes dais tanta dor?!... Porque padecem assim?!...
E uma infinita tristeza, uma funda turbação entra em mim, fica em mim presa. Cai neve na Natureza e cai no meu coração.
Augusto Gil (1873-1929), Balada da Neve in Luar de Janeiro, 1909.
Fui ver. A neve caía do azul cinzento do céu, branca e leve, branca e fria... Há quanto tempo a não via! E que saudades, Deus meu!
Olho-a através da vidraça. Pôs tudo da cor do linho. Passa gente e, quando passa, os passos imprime e traça na brancura do caminho...
Fico olhando esses sinais da pobre gente que avança, e noto, por entre os mais, os traços miniaturais duns pezitos de criança...
«Il pleure dans mon coeurComme il pleut sur la ville.»
VerlaineDedicado a Vicente Arnoso
