As Vitrines
Chico Buarque Lyrics
Eu te vejo sair por aí
Te avisei que a cidade era um vão
-Dá tua mão
-Olha pra mim
-Não faz assim
-Não vai lá não
Os letreiros a te colorir
Embaraçam a minha visão
Eu te vi suspirar de aflição
Já te vejo brincando, gostando de ser
Tua sombra a se multiplicar
Nos teus olhos também posso ver
As vitrines te vendo passar
Na galeria
Cada clarão
É como um dia depois de outro dia
Abrindo um salão
Passas em exposição
Passas sem ver teu vigia
Catando a poesia
Que entornas no chão

He wrote and studied literature as a child and found music through the bossa nova compositions of Tom Jobim and João Gilberto. He performed as a singer and guitarist in the 1960s as well as writing a play that was deemed dangerous by the Brazilian military dictatorship of the time. Buarque, along with several Tropicalist and MPB musicians, was threatened by the Brazilian military government and eventually left Brazil for Italy in 1969. However, he came back to Brazil in 1970, and continued to record, perform, and write, though much of his material was suppressed by government censors. He released several more albums in the 1980s and published three novels in the 1990s and 2000s.
In 2019, Buarque was awarded the Camões Prize, the most important prize for literature in the Portuguese language.

As Vitrines
Chico Buarque

Eu te vejo sumir por aí
Te avisei que a cidade era um vão
- Dá tua mão
- Olha pra mim
- Não faz assim
- Não vai lá não
Os letreiros a te colorir
Embaraçam a minha visão
Eu te vi suspirar de aflição
E sair da sessão, frouxa de rir
Já te vejo brincando, gostando de ser
Tua sombra a se multiplicar
Nos teus olhos também posso ver
As vitrines te vendo passar
Na galeria, cada clarão
É como um dia depois de outro dia
Abrindo um salão
Passas em exposição
Passas sem ver teu vigia
Catando a poesia
Que entornas no chão
Victoria Paiva
Eu te vejo sumir por aí
Te avisei que a cidade era um vão
- Dá tua mão
- Olha pra mim
- Não faz assim
- Não vai lá não
Os letreiros a te colorir
Embaraçam a minha visão
Eu te vi suspirar de aflição
E sair da sessão, frouxa de rir
Já te vejo brincando, gostando de ser
Tua sombra a se multiplicar
Nos teus olhos também posso ver
As vitrines te vendo passar
Na galeria, cada clarão
É como um dia depois de outro dia
Abrindo um salão
Passas em exposição
Passas sem ver teu vigia
Catando a poesia
Que entornas no chão
Já te vejo brincando, gostando de ser
Tua sombra a se multiplicar
Nos teus olhos também posso ver
As vitrines te vendo passar
Na galeria, cada clarão
É como um dia depois de outro dia
Abrindo um salão
Passas em exposição
Passas sem ver teu vigia
Catando a poesia
Que entornas no chão
Vitor Gouveia
"Passas sem ver teu vigia, catando a poesia que entornas no chão". Um dos maiores versos da história da música brasileira. Chico eterno.

@B. B.A. Thank you so much for the explanation. Much appreciated. Not always easy to decipher Chico's poetry for a non-native Portuguese speaker...
B. B.A.
@William's BossaNova Guitar its about a person seeing his beloved, who he tried to keep away from the city that he finds uncomfortable, finding herself in the city and becoming someone that she likes, enjoying the city night life and its lights (neons, theathers, expositions, galleries), with her attention quickly expanding far beyond him and now he can only see her goes by enjoying the world without noticing him, who still watches her and sees her as his muse, the center of his world.

Desde os 12 anos toco e canto músicas de Chico Buarque. Já estou com 59 e não enjoei ainda.
