The lyrics to Marisa Monte's song Arrepio are quite simple and repetitive, yet the emotion conveyed is that of a thrilling excitement or anticipation. The word "arrepio" translates to "shiver" or "goosebumps" in Portuguese, and the repetition of this word throughout the song along with the accompanying beat creates a palpable feeling of physical excitement. The "pancada" or "beat" that is mentioned also contributes to this feeling of anticipation, as if the listener is waiting for something big to happen.
The remaining lyrics in the song are more nonsensical, with the use of "ai ai ê" and "na na na naí eí" serving as chants or exclamations of excitement. The repetition of the phrase "lero lero" adds to the feeling of playfulness and lightheartedness in the song. Altogether, the lyrics of "Arrepio" create a sense of joyful anticipation and excitement that is sure to make the listener move and dance along to the beat.
