花
麻布音楽集団 (www.afmlabs.com) Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Quem é você?
Quem é você?
Quem é você?
Por que entrou no planeta minado sem avisar?
Tocou seu sucesso gravado no disco voador
Tive que sonhar, meu querubim
Foi quando o vento me soprou
Estava sentado no quintal

Ilusão de pensamento
Não há flores no momento
Mas a festa do sonho
Vai continuar
Quando olho no espelho do teu horizonte
Sinto que eu sou a linha entre o céu e o mar
Quando olho no espelho do teu horizonte
E vejo no brilho da luz do luar
Sinto que sou a linha entre o céu e o mar

Quem é você?
Quem é você? Por quê?

Overall Meaning

The song "花" by 麻布音楽集団 (AFM) starts with the repeated question "Quem é você?" (Who are you?), suggesting a kind of existential search or questioning of identity. The following lines seem to refer to some kind of unexpected intrusion, represented by the metaphor of entering a "planet of mines" without warning. The next line is intriguingly surreal, with the image of someone playing their successful recording on a "flying disc". This could be interpreted as either referring to some kind of alien encounter, or perhaps more symbolically, to a kind of transcendent experience that has disrupted the ordinary world.

The next lines shift to a dreamlike state, where the singer is sitting in a yard and experiencing a "thought illusion". The absence of flowers suggests a kind of barren, lifeless state, but the "party of the dream" is still continuing. The final lines return to the central image of looking into a "mirror of your horizon", which seems to represent a kind of connection to some larger cosmic or spiritual reality. The singer feels like they are the "line between the sky and the sea", a powerful image of boundary-breaking and unity.
