Amor das Águas

In 'Amor Das Águas,' TINA explores the profound and multifaceted nature of love through the metaphor of water. The song opens with the assertion that love has the power to heal another love, suggesting a cyclical and restorative quality inherent in romantic relationships. The imagery of the wind blowing at the pier and the absence of longing ('saudade') sets a serene and hopeful tone, indicating a love that is fulfilling and present.

The recurring motif of water in the lyrics serves as a powerful symbol for the different dimensions of love. TINA contrasts river water, which is drinkable, with sea water, which is used for blessings and bathing. This duality represents the nourishing and purifying aspects of love. River water symbolizes sustenance and the essential, everyday needs of a relationship, while sea water signifies spiritual cleansing and renewal. The idea that love can both sustain and purify highlights its complexity and depth.

TINA further delves into the nature of love by describing it as something to be understood and inherently desired ('O querer mora dentro de nós'). The metaphor of being a port and a ship ('Eu sou porto e você de aportar') emphasizes the idea of love as a safe haven and a destination. This imagery suggests that love provides stability and a sense of belonging, reinforcing the theme of love as a fundamental and nurturing force in our lives. Through 'Amor Das Águas,' TINA beautifully captures the essence of love as both a physical and spiritual journey, deeply rooted in the natural world and human experience.
