The lyrics are a plea for spiritual cleansing and guidance, emphasizing the sacredness of Nanã's waters. The repetition of the phrase "Me lava Nanã, me lava" underscores the deep desire for purification and renewal through the divine essence of Nanã's waters.

Washing the eyes to see the divine light of protective guides, the ears to hear teachings of righteous paths, and the mouth to speak words of love to those in need, all point to a transformation that is both internal and external. This cleansing is not just about personal purification but also about becoming a vessel of positivity and love for others.
The chorus, invoking "Nanã Buruquê," highlights the strength and blessings derived from Nanã's waters. The repetition of seeking strength to overcome challenges and the desire for blessings reflects a deep faith in the transformative power of these sacred waters. The song concludes with a call to fill the heart with joy and remove affliction, encapsulating the ultimate goal of spiritual peace and happiness. Juliana D Passos' soulful delivery and the song's repetitive structure create a meditative and reverent atmosphere, inviting listeners to partake in this spiritual journey.
