Perigo

In 'Perigo,' Asas Livres delves into the intoxicating and perilous nature of romantic attraction. The song's title, which translates to 'Danger,' sets the tone for a narrative that explores the risks and temptations inherent in love. The lyrics open with a carefree attitude, suggesting a willingness to let things unfold naturally, regardless of whether the situation is ripe for romance. This laissez-faire approach underscores the unpredictability of love and the excitement that comes with it.

The song juxtaposes the duality of human nature, describing people as both 'Anjo do bem' (angel of good) and 'gênio do mal' (genius of evil). This contrast highlights the complexity of emotions involved in romantic relationships, where the same person can evoke both positive and negative feelings. The real danger, as the lyrics suggest, lies in the proximity of the beloved. Having someone 'perto dos olhos' (close to the eyes) but 'longe do coração' (far from the heart) creates a tantalizing yet risky scenario. The physical presence of the loved one, coupled with emotional distance, amplifies the sense of temptation and peril.

The chorus emphasizes the allure of the beloved's smile and eyes, which are described as sources of great temptation. The imagery of 'teus olhos, teu sorriso numa noite' (your eyes, your smile in a night) evokes a sense of magical, almost irresistible attraction. This potent combination of visual and emotional cues makes it clear why the singer feels both drawn to and wary of the object of their affection. The song captures the essence of romantic danger, where the stakes are high, and the outcomes are uncertain, making the experience both thrilling and fraught with risk.
