"My soul is in a hurry" by Mario de Andrade - A poem that leaves a deep mark
Today, a my colleague and a good friend sent me a poem by a Brazilian poet Mario de Andrade: "My soul is in a hurry." I liked the poem so much that I wanted to share it with you. I recommend those who understand the Serbian language to listen to it in an extraordinary interpretation by Voja Brajovic which I have placed here next to the English version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01ucgJ-rDp4 Mário Raul de Morais Andrade, better known as Mario de Andrade (Sao Paolo, 1893-1945), writing in an unconventional, hitherto unknown way, laid the foundations of modernism in Brazil. A poet, writer, essayist and musicologist, he left a great mark in both Brazilian and world literature. He will be remembered for many ideas that bordered on bizarreness, but also for works that still live on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9kbvQwWwmw I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

Da, žuri mi se. Žuri mi se da živim tim intenzitetom koju samo zrelost može dati. Ne želim uzalud da potrošim više ni jedan slatkiš koji mi je preostao. Siguran sam da su još slađi od onih koje sam već pojeo. Moj cilj je doći do kraja u miru sa sobom, sa mojim bližnjima i mojom savešću.
Ja sam se danas najezila kada sam je odslusala, tako je istinita i zivotna. Drago mi je da Vam se svidja.
drago je meni da si me posjetila.
Wow! Thank you for the article, you made my evening!
"I want the essence, my soul is in a hurry. Not many treats are left in the packet." That's a lovely poem. I have to google it for it's words. Thank you for sharing this wonderful poem. I love it!
