Sorria

In 'Sorria,' Os Travessos crafts a heartfelt narrative about the transformative power of love and the importance of embracing happiness. The song opens with the singer expressing a deep, almost magical connection with the person they love. Every time they see or think about this person, they feel something unique and special, highlighting the intensity of their emotions. This sets the stage for a plea to leave behind past troubles and focus on the potential for happiness together.

The lyrics then shift to a more direct appeal, urging the loved one to forget past worries and join the singer in a journey towards happiness. The repeated use of the word 'carente' (needy) underscores a mutual longing for companionship and emotional fulfillment. The singer's invitation to 'come with me and try to be happy' is a call to embrace the present and the possibilities it holds, rather than being bogged down by past mistakes or regrets.

The chorus, with its repeated exhortation to 'Sorria!' (Smile!), serves as both a literal and metaphorical call to action. The act of smiling is portrayed as a way to capture and preserve moments of joy, as if the heart is recording these precious memories. The imagery of the heart 'filming' and 'recording' the loved one's name suggests a deep, enduring affection that transcends temporary sadness. The song concludes with a hopeful note, emphasizing the beauty of their love and the desire to see the loved one happy, reinforcing the central theme of finding joy in love and togetherness.
