William Blake - The Tyger - Poem

Caros leitores, segue o poema de William Blake, "The Tyger". Tal poema foi publicado entre 1789 e 1794.

"The Tyger

TYGER! Tyger! Burning bright / In the
forests of the night, / What immortal hand or eye / Could frame thy fearful
symmetry? // In what distant deeps or skies / Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
/On what wings dare he aspire? / What the hand dare seize the fire? // And
what shoulder; what art, / Could twist the sinews of thy heart? / And
when thy heart began to beat / What dread hand? what dread feet? //
What the hammer? What he chain? / In what furnace was thy brain? /
What thy anvil? What dread grasp / Dare its deadly terrors clasp? // When
the stars threw down their spears, / And water´d heaven with their tears, /
Did he smile his work to see? / Did he who made Lamb make thee? //
Tyger! Tyger! Burning bright / In the forests of the night, / What immortal
hand or eye / Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?"

SMOKE OF LIGHT - A POEM BY JORGE LUIZ DE OLIVEIRA

Caros leitores, segue um poema de versos livres em Inglês escrito por mim!


Smoke of Light
(Poem By Jorge Luiz de Oliveira)

Smoke of my Soul,
Abyss of my Unknown!
Darkness Be my Faith!
Lord... Pride burnt my Soul.

Smoke of Light!
Sweet Love... So Sanctified.
Seed of Madness... Carcass of Pain!

My Soul sails into the Night!
Sons of our Sins!
Light... Be my Guide!
Stars... The Map of my Endless Fate!

(Poem By Jorge Luiz de Oliveira)
