Com Minhas Velas Erguidas

Renato Sakate 1978 (Botucatu)



Neste mar fantástico e impressionante
navego com minhas velas erguidas
De calmaria em calmaria são seguidas
tempestades de raios e ondas gigantes.

Ignorando as baixas de navegantes
o leme agarro e, com bruta investida
mais se vê, de água e sal, a nau vestida
e as minhas mãos, mar, dor, e a cor do sangue.

Mas ao lado, um límpido ponto brilha!
Reaviva a esperança num raio de sol
e a solidão se desfaz, co'esta trilha.

Seguindo a luz com cuidado, um atol
ergue e entendo ao te encontrar por uma ilha
que a luz do nosso amor era o farol.
