Na rua, na chuva, na fazenda (Casinha de sapé)
Kid Abelha
Unrequited Love and Gratitude in 'Na Rua, Na Chuva, Na Fazenda'
The song 'Na Rua, Na Chuva, Na Fazenda' by Kid Abelha, a popular Brazilian pop-rock band, is a poignant reflection on unrequited love and the appreciation of having someone special in one's life. The lyrics express a deep unwillingness to forget someone's face, indicating a lingering attachment and possibly a heartbreak. The repetition of the phrase 'não estou disposto a esquecer seu rosto de vez' (I'm not willing to completely forget your face) suggests a struggle to move on from a past relationship where feelings were not reciprocated.
The chorus of the song, 'Jogue suas mãos para o céu e agradeça se acaso tiver alguém que você gostaria que estivesse sempre com você' (Throw your hands to the sky and give thanks if by chance you have someone you would like to always be with you), serves as a reminder to cherish the presence of loved ones in our lives. It contrasts the pain of unrequited love with the joy of mutual affection, urging listeners to be grateful for the people who do love and support them. The song's title, which translates to 'On the street, in the rain, on the farm,' along with the mention of 'numa casinha de sapê' (in a little thatched house), evokes a sense of simplicity and a desire for companionship in any circumstance, whether it be ordinary or challenging.
Kid Abelha's music often explores themes of love, relationships, and emotional experiences, and this song is no exception. The band's style combines pop melodies with rock influences, creating songs that resonate with a wide audience. 'Na Rua, Na Chuva, Na Fazenda' captures the bittersweet nature of love—highlighting both the pain of longing for someone who doesn't feel the same way and the importance of appreciating the people who are present and loving in our lives.
