QUATRAINS DE NOSSA SENHORA

I.
Quando obelisco y agulhas se juntan,
bellum sonat.
Obelisco, agulhas y portán
juntos pacem donant.

II.
A pedra se va desminuí
por asesino inútil.
Depois, de novo crece
en mensage más sútil.

III.
Quando vene a shekina,
trae temor y espanto,
mas se verá que esconde
la paz bajo su manto.

In Quatrain I, "obelisco" refers to the United States. "agulhas" ("spires") symbolizes Russia. "portán" or "portón" means "gate," and refers to China. "bellum sonat" means "war breaks out." "pacem donant" means "they give peace." I don't know if these things are true. I'm not a prophet. I had not yet been moved to translate the Quatrains, so I'll refrain from doing it here.
