Como Diria Odair [English translation]

Happiness

Is such a difficult thing

To reach

But sometimes it reaches us

When we aren't waiting for it

When we aren't waiting for anything at all

It reaches us

And stays

For a while

With me

For some hours, minutes, seconds

The poet said so,

The wise poet Odair

Listen to it

There's no thing such as happiness

Only happy moments

The other moments are only burdens and quarrels

And whenever I'm happy

A stupid person comes to me

Pretending to be a friend

Wanting me to take this smile off my face

That is the nearest I can get to heaven

That's where I can get
