Dez Corações (part. Maiara e Maraisa)

Marília Mendonça's song "Dez Corações," featuring Maiara e Maraisa, is a touching exploration of the overwhelming emotions that come with being deeply in love. The lyrics delve into the intense feelings and sensations that arise when one is enamored with another person. The song opens with a series of rhetorical questions, pondering what exactly it is about the beloved that is so captivating. Is it their eyes, their mouth, their kiss, or the affection they show? This uncertainty highlights the complexity and multifaceted nature of attraction and love.

The chorus of the song introduces a powerful metaphor: the sensation of having ten hearts beating inside oneself. This vivid imagery conveys the intensity and multiplicity of emotions that love can evoke. The idea of ten hearts suggests an overwhelming, almost uncontainable, feeling of passion and affection. The repetition of the phrase "tudo perfeito" (everything perfect) underscores the idealized perception of the beloved, a common experience when one is in love. This idealization often leads to overlooking any flaws, seeing the loved one as perfect in every way.

The song also touches on the theme of longing and the comfort found in the presence of the loved one. When the beloved is far away, their absence is deeply felt, creating a sense of longing and incompleteness. Conversely, when they are near, their presence brings a profound sense of peace and contentment. This juxtaposition of longing and peace highlights the emotional dependency that can develop in a loving relationship. Marília Mendonça's heartfelt delivery, combined with the harmonious collaboration with Maiara e Maraisa, makes "Dez Corações" a poignant and relatable anthem for anyone who has experienced the highs and lows of love.
