Escondido Dos Seus Pais
Sorriso Maroto
The Thrill of Forbidden Love
Sorriso Maroto's song "Escondido Dos Seus Pais" delves into the exhilarating yet risky nature of a secret romance. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a couple sneaking around to be together, emphasizing the thrill and excitement that comes with doing something forbidden. The song opens with the protagonist entering the lover's house quietly, ensuring that no one hears him. This sets the stage for a clandestine encounter filled with hushed whispers and careful movements to avoid detection.
The chorus highlights the lengths to which the couple goes to keep their love hidden. They make love quietly to avoid waking the neighbors, leave the TV on to mask any noise, and are constantly on edge, aware that any sudden movement or sound could give them away. The repeated line, "Amor gostoso é escondido dos seus pais" (Delicious love is hidden from your parents), underscores the idea that the forbidden nature of their relationship adds to its allure and intensity.
The song also touches on the fear and excitement that come with such a secretive relationship. The couple is always on high alert, ready with excuses if they are caught. The mention of the door slamming, the dog barking, and the mother waking up adds a layer of tension, making the listener feel the urgency and danger of their situation. This blend of fear and excitement is a common theme in songs about forbidden love, and Sorriso Maroto captures it perfectly with their smooth, emotive delivery and catchy melody.
