Anjo Inutil
Amália Rodrigues Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Na selva da minha vida
O sangue dele nos cardos
Ainda hoje tem vida
Rasgou as asas na pele
De modo grave, mais além
Por esse amor que me teve
The above lyrics are from the song "Anjo Inutil" by Amália Rodrigues. The lyrics describe the presence of an angel that entered the singer's life and left a significant mark. The angel's journey was tumultuous as he passed through the jungle of the singer's life, leaving behind a trail of blood on the thorns that still persists to this day. The angel's struggle continued as he tore his wings on the singer's skin, which served as a reminder of the depth of his love for her.
The lyrics carry a deep sense of pain and regret, as the love that was shared between the singer and the angel is now gone. The singer acknowledges that the love between herself and the angel was something truly special, and is not something that she has experienced with anyone else. The loss of this love is felt deeply, and the memory of the angel's presence in her life continues to haunt her.
