Ode to Minas Gerais

There's a place you must go
To escape from madness, you know.
Very far from the Big Apple and L.A.
And its cuisine is advanced light years away.

Look for a place called M.G,
After that experience you'll thank me.
In M.G, Brazil, you'll have lots of fun,
It's a place you'll relax, never run.

Try the Central Market in B.H.
After that experience, thank me, mate!
People from M.G. have the best will,
Thank God I was born in Brazil.

Auf gute Freunde

Tenho bebido de generosos cálices, mas sem brindar;

Tenho visto mais estrelas cadentes do que rostos;

Tenho lido mais pixels do que olhos e lábios;

Tenho ouvido mais canções nostálgicas do que gargalhadas.

E nada cantei! Porque ainda não é a hora certa.

Stay safe!

 

Renan,

Pandemia da covid-19 ano 2, centésimo quinquagésimo quarto dia.

Dia de Vênus.
