Poema

The song 'Poema' by Banda Eva is a beautiful exploration of love and recognition. The lyrics describe a moment of profound connection between two people, where the narrator feels an immediate and deep recognition upon meeting the other person. This sense of familiarity suggests a love that transcends time, as if they had known each other in a past life or a different realm. The phrase 'Você chegou te reconheci' (You arrived, I recognized you) sets the tone for this mystical and almost fated encounter.

As the song progresses, the narrator expresses a deep affection and desire to savor every moment with their beloved. The act of kissing the other person's face until they both feel the purest and most perfect love highlights the intensity and purity of their emotions. This love is not just physical but also spiritual, as it brings a sense of completeness and fulfillment. The desire to 'parar o tempo' (stop time) reflects the narrator's wish to hold onto this perfect moment forever, fearing that time will take their beloved away.

The concept of time is a recurring theme in the song. The narrator experiences the seconds as if they were minutes, days, or even hours, emphasizing the relativity of time when one is in love. The word 'sempre' (always) is repeated, signifying the narrator's longing for this moment to last forever. The final lines, 'Pra mim sempre é tudo que agora se faz eterno' (For me, always is everything that now becomes eternal), encapsulate the essence of the song. It speaks to the timeless nature of true love, where a single moment can feel eternal and everlasting.
