Se Queres Saber
Nana Caymmi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Se eu te amo ainda
Procura entender
A minha mágoa infinda
Olha bem nos meus olhos
Quando eu falo contigo
E vê quanta coisa
Eles dizem que eu não digo
O olhar de quem ama diz
O que o coração não quer
Nunca mais eu serei feliz
Enquanto vida eu tiver
In "Se Queres Saber," Nana Caymmi sings about a love that has ended but still lingers within her. The lyrics describe the singer's immense pain and heartbreak and her inability to move on from the love that has left her. The first verse urges the listener to understand the constant agony that the singer is dealing with due to her unending hurt, despite her love still being present. The line "Olha bem nos meus olhos, quando eu falo contigo" invites the listener to look into her eyes to understand how much pain she is carrying, even as she speaks. The final verse declares that the singer can never find happiness again as long as she is living, suggesting that she will always carry the pain of her lost love with her, no matter how she tries to push it away.

Se queres saber
If you want to know
Se eu te amo ainda
If I still love you
Procura entender
Try to understand
A minha mágoa infinda
My endless sorrow
Olha bem nos meus olhos
Look deep into my eyes
Quando eu falo contigo
When I talk to you
E vê quanta coisa
And see how much
Eles dizem que eu não digo
They say that I don't say
O olhar de quem ama diz
The look of someone who loves says
O que o coração não quer
What the heart doesn't want
Nunca mais eu serei feliz
I will never be happy again
Enquanto vida eu tiver
As long as I live
