Brazilian Portuguese translation of “Young Woman at a Window”, by William Carlos Williams.
Translation by Luísa Pessoa.
A JOVEM NA JANELA
Sentada com
lágrimas
no rosto
o rosto
apoiado
em sua mão
o narizinho
do menino
em seu colo
contra o vidro
YOUNG WOMAN AT A WINDOW
She sits with
tears on
her cheek
her cheek on
her hand
the child
in her lap
his nose
pressed
to the glass
