Madrugada
Miúcha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tudo dorme na cidade
Madrugada
Só não dorme esta saudade
No meu céu
Já não brilha a luz do sol
Porque o sol que eu sonhei um dia
Era só ilusão, viu?
Que você destruiu
No meu céu
Já não brilha mais a luz do sol
Porque o sol que eu sonhei um dia
Era só ilusão, ouviu?
Era um sol fantasia
Que você destruiu
The song "Madrugada" by Miúcha Antônio Carlos Jobim conveys a sense of longing and nostalgia. The lyrics depict a city in the early hours of the morning, where everything is asleep except for the feeling of longing that the singer carries within. The "madrugada" represents the quiet, stillness, and darkness that envelops the city, mirroring the singer's emotional state.
The lyrics further reveal that the singer's happiness and joy have been shattered. The sun, which once shone brightly in their sky, is now absent. It was not a real sun but rather a figment of their imagination, a fantasy created by their dreams. This illusion was destroyed by someone significant in their life, causing the singer to feel a profound sense of loss and disillusionment.
The overall tone of the song is one of sadness and resignation. The singer tries to convey the depth of their longing and the emptiness they feel without the presence of the person who destroyed their dreams. The poetic use of celestial imagery highlights the vastness of their emotions and emphasizes the magnitude of the impact the person had on their life.
