O Mantra
OUTROEU Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Foi bem longe te buscar
Foi distante até chegar
Na beira do seu canto
Calha, água correr
Vida longa pro meu par
Vida longa pr'eu viver
Vou morrer de rir
Pois não sei triste ficar
Num instante fui olhar
Dancei ao seu encontro
Calhou conhecer
Parei só pra te encontrar
Antes eu do que chegar
Um outro ao seu encontro
E é assim, nem sempre a história tem um fim
Nem sempre a história tem fim
O amor vai me curar
O amor vai me curar
O amor
O amor vai me curar
O amor vem me encontrar
O amor
O amor vai me curar
O amor vai me curar
O amor
The lyrics to OutroEu's song O Mantra are beautifully poetic and open to interpretation, but the overarching theme seems to be one of love, hope, and the search for meaning. The first verse describes a hummingbird searching for something and traveling far to find it, arriving at the edge of a person's singing (a metaphor for their soul perhaps).
The second stanza talks about water running and the desire for a long life, which could represent the desire for a prosperous and fulfilling life. The lines "E é assim, nem sempre a história tem fim" (And that's how it is, the story doesn't always have an end) could be interpreted as a nod to the continuation of life and the constant pursuit of happiness, even if it is never truly achieved.
The chorus "O amor vai me curar" (Love will heal me) is a powerful statement about the healing properties of love. It suggests a belief that love can cure anything, from heartache to physical ailments. The repeated "O amor" (Love) at the end of the song could also represent a mantra for the listener to focus on and find hope in.
Overall, the lyrics to O Mantra are uplifting and hopeful, reminding listeners to keep searching for love and meaning in life, even if the journey never truly ends.

Beija-flor sumiu
The hummingbird disappeared
Foi bem longe te buscar
It went far to find you
Foi distante até chegar
It was distant until it arrived
Na beira do seu canto
At the edge of your song
Calha, água correr
The gutter, water flowing
Vida longa pro meu par
Long life for my partner
Vida longa pr'eu viver
Long life for me to live

I'll die laughing
Pois não sei triste ficar
Because I don't know how to be sad
Num instante fui olhar
In a moment, I went to look
Dancei ao seu encontro
Danced to meet you
Calhou conhecer
It happened to meet
Parei só pra te encontrar
Stopped just to meet you
Antes eu do que chegar
Better me than someone else to meet you
Um outro ao seu encontro
Another one meeting you
E é assim, nem sempre a história tem um fim
And that's how it is, not always the story has an end
Nem sempre a história tem fim
Not always the story has an end
