Signo de Ar

Jorge Vercillo's song 'Signo de Ar' is a poetic and romantic ode to a captivating individual who embodies the essence of air. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who commands attention and admiration with their mere presence. The opening lines, 'Anda, Manda e desmanda num beijo,' suggest a person who has a powerful and almost magical influence, capable of enchanting others with just a kiss. This person is described as having a name synonymous with desire, indicating their irresistible allure.

The song continues to explore the profound impact this person has on the narrator. The lines 'Por você o sol se levanta, Me tira do sono e do sério' convey how this individual brings light and excitement into the narrator's life, disrupting their sleep and composure. The metaphor of the person's walk making the narrator feel 'aéreo' (airy) and their smile creating a 'verão' (summer) further emphasizes the transformative and uplifting effect they have.

The chorus delves into the mystery and allure of this person, likening them to the 'Signo de ar' (Air sign). Air signs in astrology are known for their intellect, communication skills, and social nature, which aligns with the enchanting and almost ethereal qualities described in the song. The imagery of opening the 'varandas do meu coração' (balconies of my heart) and the vision of 'Você e o mar' (You and the sea) evoke a sense of openness, freedom, and boundless beauty. The song beautifully captures the feeling of being swept away by someone who brings a sense of paradise and celestial wonder into the narrator's life.

The recurring theme of the person's smile creating summer and their presence being likened to a constellation reinforces the idea of their extraordinary and almost otherworldly charm. 'Signo de Ar' is a celebration of the enchanting power of love and attraction, wrapped in poetic metaphors and vivid imagery that transport the listener to a dreamy, romantic world.
