Paisagem Azul
Sigo incompleta mais uma viagem
Pela cordilheira ténue do ar no mar
À janela dos olhos sem paisagem
Estrangeira no meu próprio lugar
Chegando ao local da minha vinda
Sou partindo sem me ir embora
No caminho do ser fiel à coisa finda
Do não ser eu mais o que já fora
E porque estou sempre de partida
De ir partindo vou sempre chegando
No último adeus à minha despedia
Sigo na viagem do ir e vir voltando
Levando na mão desta minha vida
A passagem de ir sempre viajando
