The Intimate Dance of Love in Djavan's 'Meu'

Djavan's song 'Meu' is a heartfelt ode to the intimate and unique connection between two lovers. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship where every action and word from the beloved is cherished and admired. The phrase 'Você sabe fazer tudo o que faz' (You know how to do everything you do) highlights the admiration and respect the narrator has for their partner's abilities and qualities. This admiration is further emphasized with 'Nada existe em você que eu não goste demais' (There is nothing in you that I don't like too much), showcasing an all-encompassing love and appreciation.

The song delves into the joy and security found in this relationship. Lines like 'Faz a cara feliz de quem sabe o que é seu' (Make the happy face of someone who knows what is theirs) and 'É como faz o amor pra se proteger' (It's how love protects itself) suggest a deep sense of belonging and mutual understanding. The relationship is portrayed as a sanctuary where suffering and discord are 'vetado' (forbidden), creating a space where love flourishes without the shadows of pain or conflict.

Moreover, Djavan uses metaphors related to nature to express the depth of his feelings. 'Ar, só com você' (Air, only with you) and 'Mar, com você qualquer fundura dá' (Sea, with you any depth is manageable) illustrate how the presence of the beloved makes everything feel possible and safe. The repeated emphasis on 'meu' (mine) underscores a profound sense of personal connection and possession, not in a controlling way, but in a way that signifies deep emotional intimacy and exclusivity. The song beautifully captures the essence of a love that is both profound and uniquely personal, celebrating the joy and security it brings.
