A Trick

Time flies* (Time goes by without a pause)
if you don't think of the hours.
The hands of the clock
keep turning if you don't look.

But when I heat the stove
to make a coffee,
I see time stop.
For boiling water
seems never to be ready, it's never done. 

6:04, 6:05, 6:05, 6:05 (AM)
Waiting for the kettle's whistle,
I watch time stop.
Stopping,
it's time's trick.

In the afternoons at work,
I want the time to pass.
The hands of the clock
just go tick-tock.

When I meet with friends
to have coffee,
nothing is so fast.
There's no disguising it,
it seems like a joke...
Come on, come on!

When I stop to look at the time,
it's time I look for,
and I wait anxiously.
I'll eat at home:
peanut candy, milk pudding, coconut bits, jujubees,**
coconut flan, sweets, churros, yerba mate tea.
Peanut candy, milk pudding, coconut bits, jujubees,
coconut flan, sweets, churros.

And I'll watch time stop.
Stopping,
it's time's trick.

Peanut candy, milk pudding, coconut bits, jujubes,
Coconut flan, sweets, churros, yerba mate tea.

Pirraça

Passa o tempo sem demora
Quando não penso nas horas
Os ponteiros do relógio
Fazem voltas se não olho

Mas quando acendo o fogo
Para fazer um café
Vejo o tempo parar
Pra água ferver
Parece nunca acabar, espera sem fim

Seis e quatro, seis e cinco, seis e cinco, seis e cinco
Esperando o apito da chaleira
Vejo o tempo parar
Parar
O tempo pirraça

Quando à tarde no trabalho
Quero que o tempo passe
Os ponteiros do relógio
Só me dão o tique-taque

Quando eu encontro os amigos
Para tomar um café
A rapidez que não tinha
Sem disfarçar
Parece brincadeirinha
Pega-pega

Quando paro que olho as horas
Para o tempo que me olha
E espero ansiosa
Vou comendo à casa
Paçoca, suspiro, cocada, jujuba
Quindim, bombom, churros, bomba
Paçoca, suspiro, cocada, jujuba
Quindim, bombom, churros

E vejo o tempo parar
Parar
O tempo pirraça

Paçoca, suspiro, cocada, jujuba
Quindim, bombom, churros, bomba
Tique, quindim, tique, bombom, tique, churros, tique, bomba
Tique, quindim, tique, bombom, tique, churros, tique, bomba
Tique, quindim, tique, bombom, tique, churros, tique, bomba
Quindins, bombom, churros, bomba
