The Traveller

Days always begin
With the breath
In the circle of form
Everything returns to preset

And since the first day
When I planted the dream's grain

I saw the birth of sea of hope
To meet the shore

Look around!
What can you see?
Now look beyond!
To find your dreams

The sun dance with the trees
Their music is the wind

We're drifting in the sea of madness
Just let it be

Pass through the gate
The gate of the reason




Into a dream
The traveller

Overall Meaning

interprets the journey of life as a circle, that begins and ends with the simple act of breathing. The circle of life is all-encompassing and everything returns to the state it began in. The singer talks about planting the "dream's grain," which could symbolize the start of a goal or ambition. The birth of this dream creates a "sea of hope." The hope is for it to one day reach the "shore," or for the goal to be accomplished.


The singer urges the audience to look beyond what is in front of them and to keep their dreams in mind. The beautiful imagery of the sun dancing with trees and the wind creating music sets the scene for the journey of life. The singer reminds the audience that they are drifting in a "sea of madness" and to simply let it be. The journey of reaching the shore, or fulfilling the dream, isn't always straightforward and easy. It can be chaotic but it's important to not resist it and to let things play out.


The last line urges the listener to pass through the gate of reason into a dream. This could mean to let go of the limitations of reason and logic and to allow oneself to dream big. The traveller mentioned in the title of the song could represent the singer or the audience themselves. The journey of the traveller is a universal one, and the song encourages listeners to embrace the confusion and not to let go of their dreams.

Taking a breath is the start of each new day

Tito. Mande um abraço para o teu irmão, diga que eu, o Luis Henrique Marques do Rio, torceu muito pela recuperação dele e está muito feliz esse recomeço sensacional. A história do seu irmão eu a uso como inspiração de vida diante das barreiras que eu tive na minha vida e tento superá-las até hoje. Vou conseguir, assim como ele conseguiu! Abraços.
