O sonho
Jack Band Herren Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Um sonho que sonhou
Não conta tudo o que encontrou
Contar um sonho é proibido
Eu sonhei
Um sonho com amor
E uma janela e uma flor
E não havia mais nada
Só nós, a luz, e mais nada
Ali morou o amor
Amor
Amor que trago em segredo
Num sonho que não vou contar
E cada dia é mais sentido
Amor,
Eu tenho amor bem escondido
Num sonho que não sei contar
E guardarei sempre comigo
The lyrics to Jack Band Herren/Ralph Myerz's song "O Sonho" explore the idea that dreams are too precious and personal to share with others. The first stanza suggests that when we share a dream we are only able to reveal a glimpse of what it means. The dreamer in the song has dreamed of love, a window and a flower, a fountain and a friend. The dream represents a world of beauty and love in which there is nothing but the dreamer's emotions and the light. The theme of the song is the beauty of love and the importance of keeping such intimacies with oneself.
The chorus reveals that the love the dreamer has experienced is kept secret, only to be experienced internally. The dreamer guards the experience of love within themselves and treasures it like precious object. The song conveys the idea that our internal world is complex and belongs solely to us. There are things we experience in life that we cannot fully explain to others or share without losing the significance of the experience.
Overall, "O Sonho" is a beautiful song that captures the beauty of love and the complexities of internal experiences. The song is a reminder that our inner worlds are deeply personal and so bound up with emotions that sometimes they cannot be shared.

Quem contar
Whoever tells
Um sonho que sonhou
A dream they dreamed
Não conta tudo o que encontrou
Doesn't tell everything they found
Contar um sonho é proibido
Telling a dream is forbidden
Eu sonhei
I dreamed
Um sonho com amor
A dream with love
E uma janela e uma flor
And a window and a flower
Uma fonte de água e o meu amigo
A water fountain and my friend
E não havia mais nada
And there was nothing else
Só nós, a luz, e mais nada
Only us, the light, and nothing else
Ali morou o amor
Love lived there
Amor
Love
Amor que trago em segredo
Love that I keep secret
Num sonho que não vou contar
In a dream that I won't tell
E cada dia é mais sentido
And each day it's felt more
Eu tenho amor bem escondido
I have love well hidden
Num sonho que não sei contar
In a dream that I don't know how to tell
E guardarei sempre comigo
And I will always keep it with me
