Banir a Mim ― de Mim ―
Fosse eu Capaz ―
Fortim inacessível
Ao Eu Audaz ―
Mas se meu Eu ― Me assalta ―
Como ter paz
Salvo se a Consciência
Submissa jaz?
E se ambos somos Rei
Que outro Fim
Salvo abdicar-
Me de Mim?
Me from Myself — to banish —
Had I Art —
Impregnable my Fortress
Unto All Heart —
But since Myself — assault Me —
How have I peace
Except by subjugating
Consciousness?
And since We're mutual Monarch
How this be
Except by Abdication —
Me — of Me?
Had I Art —
Impregnable my Fortress
Unto All Heart —
But since Myself — assault Me —
How have I peace
Except by subjugating
Consciousness?
And since We're mutual Monarch
How this be
Except by Abdication —
Me — of Me?
