Para você ganhar belíssimo Ano Novo
cor do arco-íris, ou da cor da sua paz,
Ano Novo sem comparação com todo o tempo já vivido
(mal vivido talvez ou sem sentido)
para você ganhar um ano
não apenas pintado de novo, remendado às carreiras,
mas novo nas sementinhas do vir-a-ser;
novo até no coração das coisas menos percebidas
(a começar pelo seu interior)
novo, espontâneo, que de tão perfeito nem se nota,
mas com ele se come, se passeia,
se ama, se compreende, se trabalha,
você não precisa beber champanha ou qualquer outra birita,
não precisa expedir nem receber mensagens
(planta recebe mensagens?
passa telegramas?)
Não precisa
fazer lista de boas intenções
para arquivá-las na gaveta.
Não precisa chorar arrependido
pelas besteiras consumidas
nem parvamente acreditar
que por decreto de esperança
a partir de janeiro as coisas mudem
e seja tudo claridade, recompensa,
justiça entre os homens e as nações,
liberdade com cheiro e gosto de pão matinal,
direitos respeitados, começando
pelo direito augusto de viver.
Para ganhar um Ano Novo
que mereça este nome,
você, meu caro, tem de merecê-lo,
tem de fazê-lo novo, eu sei que não é fácil,
mas tente, experimente, consciente.
É dentro de você que o Ano Novo
cochila e espera desde sempre.
Receita de ano novo - Carlos Drummond de Andrade
To get a wonderful New Year
in the color of the rainbow, or the color of your peace,
ANew Year without any comparison with the time already lived
(Barely lived or perhaps meaningless)
you get for one year
not only repainted, botched careers,
but again the seed of coming into being;
new even in the heart of things less noticeable
(Starting from the inside)
new, spontaneous, that's so perfect and can be seen,
but he eats, whether walking,
you love, you understand, if it works,
you do not need to drink champagne or any other booze
need not send or receive messages
(a plant receives messages?
do it reply telegrams?)
No need to do list of good intentions
to file them into the drawer.
No need to cry sorry
the consummate nonsense
not believe silly
that hope comes with a law
from January things will change
and it will be all clarity, reward,
justice among men and nations,
freedom with smell and taste of bread in the morning,
rights respected, starting
for the absolute right to live.
To get a New Year
worthing the name,
you, my dear, you have to earn it,
has to do it again, I know it's not easy,
but try, try, consciously.
It is within you that the New Year
dozing and waiting ever since.
