Cecilia II
Bella e o Olmo da Bruxa Lyrics

In the song Cecilia II by Bella e o Olmo da Bruxa, the lyrics depict a sense of longing, melancholy, and uncertainty as the singer expresses their desire to see a certain person again. The first line "Céu vermelho sob o mar" translates to "Red sky under the sea" and creates a vivid image of a beautiful yet unusual sight, perhaps symbolizing the complex emotions and situations the singer is going through. The singer then proceeds to mention that it is another autumn day without seeing this person they are longing for. They describe waiting for this person in the lanes of a pub or bar, hoping to see them there. However, they mention that the person's routine is disrupted, and another year has passed without any outcome, making the singer feel condemned from the start. They mention that their heart is burning, unable to forget this person even in the cold winter.

The second stanza shifts to the singer observing the person from afar. They describe the person with "black eyes" as if they are surrounded by a circle of fire with uncertainties. The singer acknowledges that it's another phase of transition, and their love remains incomplete, making the overall tone of the song quite somber.

The chorus of the song involves the singer admitting their pride and desire to see this person again. The song ends with the plea to this person to kiss their nose, signifying the intimacy and familiarity they shared before.
