Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Se não tivesse o amor
Se não tivesse essa dor
E se não tivesse o sofrer

E se não tivesse o chorar
Melhor era tudo se acabar
Melhor era tudo se acabar
Eu amei, amei demais
O que eu sofri por causa do amor
Ninguém sofreu

Eu chorei, perdi a paz
Mas o que eu sei




É que ninguém nunca teve mais
Mais do que eu

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Consolacao by Herbie Mann feat. Baden Powell Gabriel Papao Juquinha speak about the pains and joys of love. The song starts by saying that without love, pain, suffering and tears, life would be better off ending. However, the next lines reveal the complexity of the singer's emotions. They have loved too much and suffered greatly due to love. The singer acknowledges that no one has suffered like them, and it is clear that they have lost their peace of mind due to their love. Despite this, the singer also believes that they have experienced love more than anyone else.


This song beautifully captures the idea that love is a double-edged sword. It can bring immense joy and happiness, but it can also cause great pain and suffering. The singer's emotions are raw and relatable to anyone who has experienced the joys and pains of love. The use of the Portuguese word 'consolacao' in the title, which means consolation or comfort, brings out the idea that even in the midst of pain and suffering, there can be moments of solace and healing.

I love the way she sometimes looks up and smiles at the percussionist, and how every musician is in their own groove inside the song.

This is very serious music. It has a dark element that I love in music. Her guitar playing is out of this world. Im currently studying classical guitar because of her.
