Algarve, Resort Praia Verde, swimming pool

Algarve, Resort Praia Verde, swimming pool
I come from a country
full of light

that conceals the miseries of life
and mysteries of existence
under mirrors of salt
and shine

dissolved by the sea.

///

Sou de um pais
cheio de luz

que esconde as misérias da vida
e os mistérios da existência
sob espelhos de sal
e brilho

que o mar dissolve.
