Consolacao
Wanda De Sah Featuring the Sergio Mendes Trio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Se não tivesse o amor
Se não tivesse essa dor
E se não tivesse o sofrer

E se não tivesse o chorar
Melhor era tudo se acabar
Melhor era tudo se acabar
Eu amei, amei demais
O que eu sofri por causa do amor
Ninguém sofreu

Eu chorei, perdi a paz
Mas o que eu sei




É que ninguém nunca teve mais
Mais do que eu

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Wanda De Sah Featuring the Sergio Mendes Trio's song "Consolacao" reflect upon the emotional turmoil one goes through when experiencing love and loss. The first verse highlights that love and pain go hand in hand, and without one, we cannot truly experience the other. The second verse takes it a step further, suggesting that perhaps it would be better if everything ended when we experience pain, implying that the emotional trauma is too much to bear.


The chorus then describes the personal experience of a heartbroken lover who continues to love fiercely despite the pain. The lyrics convey the message that the singer has loved deeply, suffered greatly, and still held on to the hope that no one has loved more or suffered more than they have in the world. It is a song about finding consolation in the pain of love, as it is a necessary part of the experience.
