Lenda
Céu Lyrics

The lyrics to CéU's song Lenda are a warning to someone who is not paying attention to their actions. The lyrics begin with the commands "Tome tento, Fique esperto," which translate to "Pay attention, Stay alert." The singer then warns that there will be consequences if the person doesn't listen, saying "Hoje não tem papo," meaning there is no room for negotiation or excuses. The singer then says they will "Jogo-lhe um quebrante, Num instante," which can be translated to "I'll put a spell on you, in an instant." The result will be that the person will "virar sapo," or turn into a frog.

The lyrics continue with a reference to the belief that kissing a frog can turn it back into a prince, saying "Bobeou na crença, Príncipe volta ao seu posto de lenda," meaning "If you make a mistake in your belief, the prince will return to its legendary status." The next lines are a warning that if the person's name is in the "boca do sapo," or in the mouth of the frog, it is already too late. However, the singer suggests that there is a way to prevent this, by keeping their "boca," or mouth, in the right place, "Sua boca na minha," meaning "your mouth on mine." The final line, "O resto é boi dormindo em história errada de carochinha," is a dismissive statement, meaning "The rest is just bulls sleeping in the wrong fairytale."

Overall, the lyrics to Lenda are a warning to be careful of one's actions and beliefs, as there may be consequences that cannot be reversed. The use of the frog motif adds a mystical element to the song, suggesting that there may be magical consequences for one's actions.
