Um Segundo
Bebel Gilberto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bem tanta coisa é tão escondida
Que você não quer nem mais lembrar
Quem sabe talvez só você queira
Tanto tanto esconder

Tudo vai terminar
Tudo era um tormento
Deixa isso tudo passar
Vem viver este momento
Dos momentos (4x)

Agora não tem mais
Não tem mais nada que eu possa alcançar
Só dentro do meu peito
Eu quase paro
Eu não paro de me atormentar

Mas deixe isso tudo pra lá
Tudo era um momento
Deixe isso tudo lavar
Vem viver este momento
Dos momentos (3x)
Ah sim guarda (2x)
Para sempre sempre sim
Guarda (4x)
Dos momentos

Tudo vai terminar
Tudo era um momento
Deixe isso tudo pra lá
Vem viver este momentos
Dos momentos





Tem que reciclar (2x)
Deixe isso tudo pra lá (2x)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bebel Gilberto's song "Momento" speak to the idea that there are things in life that are so painful or difficult that we try to forget them or keep them hidden from ourselves and others. The opening lines reflect this sentiment, as the singer suggests that there are things that are "so hidden" that we don't even want to remember them. The lyrics suggest that this tendency to bury painful memories or feelings can be self-defeating, as it often results in us tormenting ourselves with thoughts and emotions that we can't escape. However, the chorus offers a different message - that we should let go and live fully in the present moment, rather than dwelling on the past. The repetition of the line "vem viver este momento" (come live this moment) underlines this message, encouraging listeners to focus on the present and embrace the fleeting joys of life.


The second verse of the song returns to the theme of torment and struggle, with the singer suggesting that there are things that they cannot escape, even within their own mind. However, the chorus once again offers a message of hope, suggesting that we can wash away the pain of the past and embrace the present moment. The final lines of the song suggest that we should let go of the past and focus on recycling our energy and moving forward.


Overall, "Momento" speaks to the difficulties and joys of living in the present moment, and the importance of letting go of painful memories in order to embrace the fleeting joys of life.
