Mulheres (Versão) (feat. Doralyce)

Silvia Duffrayer's song "Mulheres (Versão) (feat. Doralyce)" is a powerful anthem celebrating the strength, diversity, and resilience of women. The lyrics highlight women from various backgrounds and ages, emphasizing their unique experiences and contributions. By mentioning historical figures like Dandara, Elza Soares, Anastácia, and Chica da Silva, the song pays homage to women who have defied societal norms and fought for their rights. These references serve as a reminder of the ongoing struggle against patriarchy and the importance of recognizing women's achievements throughout history.

The song also addresses the oppressive nature of the patriarchy, with lines like "Crescendo oprimida pelo patriarcado, meu corpo, Minhas regras" (Growing up oppressed by patriarchy, my body, My rules). This highlights the societal pressures and limitations imposed on women, and the subsequent shift towards empowerment and self-determination. The phrase "Agora, mudou o quadro" (Now, the picture has changed) signifies a transformation in the narrative, where women are reclaiming their autonomy and asserting their rights.

Furthermore, the lyrics challenge traditional gender roles and expectations, as seen in the lines "Eu não sei porque tenho que ser a sua felicidade, Não sou sua projeção, Você é que se baste" (I don't know why I have to be your happiness, I'm not your projection, You should be enough for yourself). This rejection of being defined by others' expectations underscores the importance of self-love and independence. The song concludes with a declaration of self-discovery and empowerment: "Sou mulher, sou dona do meu corpo, E da minha vontade, Fui eu que descobri Poder e Liberdade" (I am a woman, I own my body, And my will, I discovered Power and Freedom). This powerful statement encapsulates the essence of the song, celebrating women's journey towards self-realization and liberation.
