Sung in Cape Verdean Creole, the lyrics express a longing for peace and unity in a relationship, emphasizing the importance of love as a stabilizing force. The repeated lines, "Pamo ki ama ca ta txiga, Pa nu vivi na paz" (Because love has arrived, so we can live in peace), highlight the central theme of love as a source of tranquility and fulfillment.
The song delves into the intimate aspects of a relationship, celebrating the physical and emotional closeness between partners. Lines like "Sodade di bu corpo, Bu beijo sabi dimas" (I miss your body, your kiss tastes so good) convey a deep sense of longing and affection. Pilitchi also envisions a future together, dreaming of building a family and raising children, as seen in the lines "Ben nu fazi um menina, Depos um rapaz" (Let's make a girl, then a boy). This vision of a shared future underscores the commitment and hope that love brings.
Pilitchi also addresses the challenges that couples face, acknowledging that disagreements and conflicts are a natural part of any relationship. However, he emphasizes that true love can overcome these obstacles, as expressed in the lines "Ca existi um casal na mundo ki ca dana, E normal discuti dipos cre separa" (There is no couple in the world that doesn't fight, it's normal to argue and then want to separate). The song ultimately conveys a message of resilience and the power of love to heal and unite, making it a touching tribute to the enduring nature of true love.
