Amor de Carnaval

The Ephemeral Flame of Seasonal Love

The song "Amor de Carnaval" by the Brazilian sertanejo duo Bruno e Marrone is a poignant portrayal of a love that is as intense as it is fleeting, much like the seasonal festivities of Carnival after which it is named. The lyrics speak of a love that blossomed with the arrival of spring, a time traditionally associated with new beginnings and growth. The narrator describes how they gave their all, collecting flowers from the gardens of their dreams to present to their beloved, symbolizing the efforts and dreams invested in the relationship.

However, the love described in the song is transient, changing with the seasons. The summer brings a storm of illusion, and the winter introduces a coldness, suggesting a cycle of emotional highs and lows. The love is compared to the ephemeral nature of Carnival, a festival known for its vibrant energy and temporary indulgences. The narrator expresses a deep, unconditional love, likening it to the natural bond between a mother and child or the inherent need for light to shine. Despite the depth of their feelings, the beloved does not reciprocate, leaving the narrator in a state of sorrow, as indicated by the repeated lines 'Te amei demais, Você nem viu, E eu chorei, chorei' (I loved you too much, You didn't even see, And I cried, cried).

The song's chorus, with its simple and repetitive 'Larará' melody, captures the essence of a heart singing through pain, perhaps reflecting the joyous yet superficial spirit of Carnival where people sing and dance despite any underlying sadness. The contrast between the narrator's profound love and the beloved's indifference highlights the theme of unrequited love and the pain of loving someone who does not see or value that love.
