Clarao Da Lua
Roseaux Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

O sol vive sem amor
Eu não vivo sem te ver
Quem chega na maré cheia é cantiga de bem querer

The sun lives without a dream
And I only dream of you
If when the ocean is rising
You rise and my dream is true

If when the ocean is rising
You rise and my dream is true

The sun lives without a dream
And I only dream of you
If when the ocean is rising
You rise and my dream is true

If when the ocean is rising
You rise and my dream is true

Iʼll know it by a smell
And remember by the taste
The moon so bright and full
And it shines on your smiling face

The full moon so beautiful
But no match for your smiling face

The sun lives without a dream
And I only live for you
If when the ocean is rising
You rise and my dream is true
If its height is rising high
And you rise then my dream is true

The sun lives without a dream
And I only dream of you
If when the ocean is rising
You rise and my dream is true

If when the ocean is rising
You rise and my dream is true

Iʼll know it by a smell
And remember by the taste
The moon so bright and full
And it shines on your smiling face

The moon so bright and full
But no match to your smiling face

Overall Meaning

The song "Clarao Da Lua" by Roseaux is a romantic and metaphoric ballad that expresses the singer's strong emotions for their loved one. The lyrics talk about how the sun lives without love, but the singer cannot live without seeing their beloved. The line "If when the ocean is rising, you rise and my dream is true" implies that the singer's happiness is dependent on the presence of their loved one. They love their partner so much that even the sight of the full moon cannot match the beauty of their smile. The moon serves as a reflection of the singer's love; it shines bright but pales in comparison to the radiance that their beloved possesses.

The repeated verse serves as a reminder of the singer's love for their partner. The use of sensory details such as "smell" and "taste" adds depth to the song's overall meaning, emphasizing that this love is not superficial. The use of personification in the line "who arrives at the high tide is a song of goodwill" captures the beauty in the natural world and how it reflects the love shared between the singer and their partner.
