Sonnet

The man of the earth, and miserable reprobate,
Maximum of pain that is memory,
Go into the night merencória
of his way haggard and distressed.
In the world, everywhere, you hear the cry
Of lies in his day of victory!
Ostentation, misery, false glory
Confront the truths of the Infinite!
But the chorus of sinister battles
Will fall to the rigid walls
That keep the illusion of the old world! ..
And after the pain, darkness and collapse,
The man born to dawn
The divine and eternal light of the Gospel!

Olavo Bilac
