22 - RIVERS
Fernando Pessoa

Ano: 601
Many rivers run
Down to many seas.
All my cares are one:
On what river of these
Could my heart have peace?
Two banks to each river.
None where I may stray
Hearing the rushes shiver
And seeing the river ever
Pass, yet seem to stay.
Maybe there is another
River, but far from Me.
There l may meet the Brother
Of my eternity.
In what God will this be?
Down to many seas.
All my cares are one:
On what river of these
Could my heart have peace?
Two banks to each river.
None where I may stray
Hearing the rushes shiver
And seeing the river ever
Pass, yet seem to stay.
Maybe there is another
River, but far from Me.
There l may meet the Brother
Of my eternity.
In what God will this be?
