The Gentle Journey of Love: A Reflection on 'Do Amor' by Tulipa Ruiz

Tulipa Ruiz's song 'Do Amor' is a poetic exploration of love's gentle and meandering journey. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of love as a train that moves slowly, taking its time to see who has arrived. This metaphor suggests that love is not in a rush; it is patient and observant, allowing things to unfold naturally. The imagery of the train and the wind passing by evokes a sense of calm and tranquility, emphasizing the importance of savoring each moment in the journey of love.

The song also delves into the idea of creating and inventing love. The line 'Quero inventar um você para mim' (I want to invent a you for me) speaks to the human desire to shape and mold love into something personal and unique. This creative aspect of love is further highlighted by the notion of inventing a story with its own ending. It suggests that love is a narrative we actively participate in, crafting our own experiences and outcomes.

The recurring imagery of 'Olho no olho' (eye to eye) and 'Flor no jardim' (flower in the garden) symbolizes intimacy and natural beauty. These elements underscore the song's theme of love as something organic and deeply connected to the natural world. The gentle repetition of 'Vento devagar' (slow wind) and 'Vem, vai, vem mais' (come, go, come more) reinforces the cyclical and ever-changing nature of love, inviting listeners to embrace its ebb and flow with grace and openness.
