    Whether we write or speak or are but seen

     
     I
     
    Wheter we write or speak or are but seen
    we are ever unapparent. What we are
    Cannot be transfused into word or mien.
    Our soul from us is infinitely far.
    However much we give or thoughts the will
    To make our soul with arts of self-show stored,
    Our hearts are incommunicable still.
    In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
    The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
    By any skill or thought or trick for seeing.
    Unto our very selves we are abridged
    When we would utter to our thought our being
         We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
         And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
     
    Fernando Pessoa
     
    I
     
    Escribamos, hablemos o seamos vistos
    Nunca aparentamos lo que somos
    Pues no puede transformarse en palabras o comportamiento.
    Nuestra alma permanece infinitamente lejos de nosotros.
    Por mucho que pongamos voluntad en nuestros pensamientos
    Para llenarla con el arte de mostrarse,
    Nuestros corazones permanecen incomunicables.
    En lo que nos mostramos, somos ignorados
    El abismo que existe entre dos almas no puede ser salvado
    Por ninguna habilidad del pensamiento o truco por ver.
    En nuestro mismo ser estamos separados
    Cuando quisieramos expresar a nuestro pensamiento nuestro ser
         Somos sueños de nosotros mismos, almas por momentos
          Y cada uno es otro sueño de los sueños de los demás
     
    Fernando Pessoa, traducción literal por Isaías González
