ON A WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

The sky is torn across
This ragged anniversary of two
Who moved for three years in tune
Down the long walks of their vows.

Now their love lies a loss
And Love and his patients roar on a chain;
From every true or crater
Carrying cloud, Death strikes their house.

Too late in the wrong rain
They come together whom their love parted:
The windows pour into their heart
And the doors burn in their brain.

NUM ANIVERSÁRIO DE CASAMENTO

O céu está rasgado
Neste áspero aniversário dos dois
Que após três anos de harmonia se movem
Debaixo da promessa de longa caminhada.

Agora o amor acabou-se
E o Amor e eles gritam em uníssono:
De cada verdade ou nuvem
Passageira, a Morte entra-lhes em casa.

Na tardia intempestiva chuva
Eles juntam-se mas o amor separa-os:
Despejam o coração pelas janelas
E as portas ardem-lhes na cabeça.

by Dylan THOMAS (1914-1953), in "SELECTED POEMS", The Folio Society of London Edition, 2014

(Portuguese translated by Armando TABORDA, 2016)
