restitui

The song 'Restitui' by Restituição is a powerful anthem of hope and restoration. The lyrics speak to the pain of lost dreams and the sorrow of what once was joyful now turned into mourning. The opening lines, 'Os planos que foram embora / O sonho que se perdeu,' set a somber tone, reflecting on plans and dreams that have vanished. However, the song quickly shifts to a message of resilience and faith, urging the listener not to see this as the end but as a moment to rise and cry out for divine intervention.

The chorus, 'Restitui! Eu quero de volta o que é meu,' is a fervent plea for the return of what has been lost. This cry for restitution is coupled with a request for healing, 'Sara-me! E põe teu azeite em minha dor,' invoking the biblical imagery of anointing with oil as a symbol of healing and comfort. The song continues to draw on rich spiritual metaphors, asking to be led to 'águas tranquilas' (still waters) and for the soul to be refreshed, echoing the comforting words of Psalm 23.

The final verse reinforces the theme of hope and divine promise. It speaks of the time that has been stolen and how it cannot compare to what God has prepared for those who call out to Him. The line, 'Creia porque o poder de um clamor / Pode ressuscitar,' emphasizes the belief in the power of a heartfelt cry to bring about resurrection and renewal. This song is a testament to faith, resilience, and the belief in a higher power's ability to restore and heal what has been broken.
