LINES OF THOUGHT © 2016

From the sky of Namibe,

A seagull, beneath its gentle wing,

Brought me a perfect heart,

A treasure I hold with reverent art.

And I, Angolan Sailor,

In this sea of dreams, a bold trailblazer,

Sailed with your love close to my chest,

Like an anchor and beacon in my rest.

A banner, giant of the sea,

Never lost, nor hesitating to be.

Around the world I turned, steadfast in my quest,

Always guided by your gaze, my direction blessed.

In the vast blue, I found my space,

With the perfect heart leading my pace.

And thus, on the horizon, I left my trace,

Angolan Sailor, eternal love in every embrace.

For Nicola.
