Será Que É Amor

Arlindo Cruz e Sombrinha's song 'Será Que É Amor' delves into the profound emotions that accompany the early stages of love. The lyrics are a heartfelt confession of the singer's intense feelings, which he struggles to articulate. The song opens with the singer expressing his overwhelming desire to communicate his emotions, yet he is unsure where to begin. This uncertainty is a common experience in the throes of new love, where the intensity of feelings can be both exhilarating and paralyzing.

The recurring theme of passion is evident as the singer describes his reactions whenever he sees the object of his affection. The lyrics 'Toda hora que eu te vejo, Quase morro de desejo' (Every time I see you, I almost die of desire) highlight the physical and emotional impact of this burgeoning love. The singer's timidity initially holds him back, but the strength of his feelings compels him to overcome his shyness and express his admiration and longing.

As the song progresses, the singer begins to question whether what he feels is merely passion or something deeper. The chorus, 'Será que é amor, Parece muito mais' (Is it love? It seems like much more), suggests that the singer is on the cusp of recognizing that his feelings may indeed be love. The metaphors of 'anjo' (angel) and 'flor' (flower) convey the purity and beauty of his emotions, while 'minha canção de paz' (my song of peace) indicates the tranquility and fulfillment he finds in this relationship. The song culminates in a plea to preserve their love, likening it to an ocean that must not dry up, symbolizing the depth and enduring nature of his commitment.
