Tempero do Forró
Geraldo Azevedo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Eu quero ver vc me amar
A noite inteira que prazer
Eu vou até o sol raiar
Agarradinho com vc
E as estrelas no olhar
A lua nasce no teu sorriso
A gente não quer mais parar
eu nem duvido
O dia já vai clarear
Você vai ver amanhecer
Você vai ter o meu amor
O dia inteiro com você
Eu vou até o sol se por
Eu nunca mais vou te esquecer
E vou querer sempre te amar
Seja de noite, seja de dia
É tempo de recomeçar
Você é luz que me alumia
É o meu sol, é meu luar
Morena teu chamego
Balançou meu coração
E o fogo do forró
Acendeu essa paixão
A rosa só floresce
Quando chega a estação
Você é que nem chuva
Fulorô o meu sertão
In the song "Tempero do Forró" by Geraldo Azevedo, the lyrics express the desire to witness something special happening, to see someone falling in love with the singer. The night will bring immense pleasure, as they plan to be together until the break of dawn. The lyrics paint a picture of a close embrace, with the stars shining in their eyes. The moon rises with the warmth of a smile, and they have no intention of stopping their joyful connection. The singer believes that this experience may be a dream, but they do not doubt it. They are aware that the day is about to dawn, but they are both eager to witness the sunrise together, promising a beautiful day to come.
The second verse continues the passionate tone, promising the person they are singing to that they will witness the dawn and experience the singer's love. The singer expresses their willingness to spend the entire day with this person, staying together until the sunset. They also assure that they will never forget them and will always desire to love them, regardless of whether it is day or night. It signifies the start of a new chapter, a time to begin again. The person being sung to is portrayed as a guiding light, illuminating the singer's path and acting as both their sun and moon.
In the third verse, the singer refers to their lover as "morena," which in Portuguese commonly means a person with dark skin or hair. This term of endearment implies that this person has deeply touched the singer's heart. The fire of forró, a popular Brazilian music and dance genre, has ignited a passionate love within the singer. Much like a rose that blooms only when the right season arrives, this person has brought life and happiness to the singer's world. The comparison to rain, a metaphorical way to describe the person's effect on the singer's sertão (hometown or inner self), suggests that they have brought refreshment and nourishment to their emotional landscape.
In summary, these lyrics depict a passionate and intense love story. The singer yearns to witness a profound connection with another person and spend a blissful night together. They promise an enduring love that transcends day and night, symbolizing the beginning of a new chapter. The person being sung to is described as a guiding light, bringing light and warmth to the singer's life.

Tempero do Forró - Geraldo Azevedo (LETRA)
É o balanço
É o amor
É o chamego
É o suor
É a morena
É o forró
É o balanço
É o amor
É o chamego
É o suor
É a morena
Tempero do forró
Quem quiser provar
O tempero do forró
Tem que ter balanço no corpo
Balanço no coração
Além de tudo
Tem que ter animação
A noite inteira
Cheiro de amor
Vem misturar o suor
Quanto mais quente
A gente fica melhor
Vem cá morena
Meu chamego, xodó
É o tempero do forró
