Vou Viajar

Calema's song 'Vou Viajar' is a heartfelt expression of love and the desire for a shared journey through life. The lyrics revolve around the theme of embarking on a journey, both literally and metaphorically, with a loved one. The repeated phrase 'Vou viajar' (I will travel) signifies not just a physical trip but also the emotional and spiritual journey that the singer wishes to undertake with their partner. The song opens with a rhythmic chant, 'Humbêra humbêêê,' which sets a soothing and almost hypnotic tone, drawing listeners into the narrative of love and companionship.

The lyrics pose a direct question, 'Queres fazer parte da minha vida?' (Do you want to be part of my life?), highlighting the singer's longing for a committed relationship. The mention of traveling on an airplane towards happiness ('Porque será neste avião / Que iremos rumo a felicidade') symbolizes the start of a new chapter filled with hope and joy. The singer expresses a deep desire for permanence and presence, wanting to always have their partner by their side ('Quero que seja assim pra sempre / Eu quero ter-te sempre presente'). This longing is further emphasized by the imagery of their eyes meeting under a new moon, suggesting a fresh start and endless possibilities.

The chorus reinforces the central theme of the song, with the singer declaring their intent to travel and be with their loved one regardless of the destination ('Seja qual for o lugar / Com você eu vou viajar'). The repetition of the chant 'Humbêra humbêêê' throughout the song adds a cultural and rhythmic depth, making the song not just a declaration of love but also a celebration of unity and shared experiences. The use of phrases in a different language towards the end of the song ('Ahm cê ca bé, ahm cê ca bé ôôô') adds an element of mystery and universality, suggesting that love and the desire for togetherness transcend linguistic and cultural barriers.
