Quando Te Vi
Juliana Aquino Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Quando te vi (′till there was you)
(Juliana aquino)

Nem o sol, nem mar, nem o brilho das estrelas
Tudo isso não tem valor
Sem ter você
Sem você
Nem o som
Da mais linda melodia
Nem os versos dessa canção
Irão valer

Nem o perfume
De todas as rosas, é igual
A doce presença
Do seu amor
O amor estava aqui
Mais eu nunca saberia
Do que um dia se revelou quando te vi

Nem o perfume
De todas as rosas, é igual
A doce presença do seu amor
O amor estava aqui




Mais eu nunca saberia
Do que um dia se revelou quando te vi

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Juliana Aquino's song "Quando Te Vi" ("Till There Was You") are a declaration of love and the realization of its importance in one's life. In the opening lines, the singer expresses that nothing, not the sun, the sea, or even the stars, have value or meaning without the presence of their beloved. This sets the stage for the rest of the song, as the singer continues to list the things that pale in comparison to their lover.


The second verse focuses on the power of music and poetry, stating that even the most beautiful melody or verse cannot compare to the value of having their lover with them. The third verse uses the metaphor of roses, saying that their perfume cannot compare to the sweetness of their lover's presence. The chorus repeats the idea that the singer never would have known the full extent of love and its value until they met their lover.


Overall, the song communicates a deep sense of appreciation and adoration for the singer's significant other. The use of vivid imagery and metaphors adds depth and emotion to the lyrics, making it clear just how much the singer loves and cherishes their partner.
