Pra Ver Se Cola

Larissa Manoela's song 'Pra Ver Se Cola' is a charming and nostalgic ode to young love and the innocent, playful ways children express their affections. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a school setting, where the protagonist harbors a deep crush on a classmate. The imagery of 'borrachas e apontadores' (erasers and sharpeners) and the act of decorating a borrowed book with colorful names evoke a sense of innocence and simplicity, highlighting the pure and untainted nature of childhood love.

The protagonist's efforts to gain the attention and affection of their crush are both endearing and relatable. Sending 'mil balas e mariolas' (a thousand candies and sweets) and stealing flowers from the garden are gestures that reflect the lengths to which one might go to win someone's heart, even at a young age. These actions are not grandiose but are filled with genuine emotion and a desire to connect, showcasing the earnestness of young love.

The recurring chorus, 'Cola o teu desenho no meu, pra ver se cola' (Stick your drawing to mine, to see if it sticks), serves as a metaphor for the hope that their feelings will be reciprocated. The idea of 'colando' (sticking) drawings and photos together symbolizes the desire for a mutual bond and shared experiences. The song beautifully captures the essence of a 'sonho de criança' (childhood dream), where love is simple, dreams are big, and the heart is open and hopeful. Larissa Manoela's sweet and melodic delivery further enhances the nostalgic and heartwarming feel of the song, making it a delightful listen for all ages.
