Filosofia

Leny Andrade's song 'Filosofia' is a poetic exploration of the complexities and nuances of life. The lyrics use musical metaphors to convey the idea that each life is a unique note in the grand symphony of existence. The repetition of phrases like 'Cada vida é uma nota' (Each life is a note) and 'Um arpejo, uma saudade' (An arpeggio, a longing) emphasizes the individuality and emotional depth of each person's journey. The arpeggio, a sequence of notes played in a rising or falling order, symbolizes the ups and downs of life, while 'saudade' captures the bittersweet longing for moments past.

The song also delves into the sensory experiences that shape our lives. 'Cada flor tem seu aroma' (Each flower has its scent) suggests that every experience, like every flower, has its unique essence that evokes different emotions. The mention of 'ansiedade' (anxiety) reflects the uncertainty and anticipation that often accompany our experiences. This anxiety is part of the 'delírio em que vivemos' (delirium in which we live), highlighting the chaotic and unpredictable nature of life.

Furthermore, 'Filosofia' touches on the passage of time and the duality of human existence. The lines 'Sem saber que a noite chega / Para o dia envelhecer' (Without knowing that the night comes / To age the day) poetically illustrate the inevitable transition from day to night, symbolizing the aging process and the cyclical nature of life. The juxtaposition of 'Nossa vida, nosso sonho / Nosso amargor e prazer' (Our life, our dream / Our bitterness and pleasure) encapsulates the coexistence of joy and sorrow, dreams and reality, in the human experience. Through its rich metaphors and evocative language, 'Filosofia' invites listeners to reflect on the intricate tapestry of life, filled with both beauty and complexity.
