Arriadin Por Tu (part. João Gomes)

Zé Vaqueiro's song 'Arriadin Por Tu,' featuring João Gomes, is a heartfelt ode to the overwhelming power of love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who has fallen deeply for a woman with black hair, whose presence has disrupted his peace and taken him to new emotional heights. The phrase 'me levou pra Lua' (took me to the Moon) metaphorically expresses how her affection has elevated his feelings to an almost celestial level. The repetition of 'viciei no teu chamego' (I got addicted to your affection) underscores his growing dependence on her love.

The song's narrative reveals that what started as a casual encounter quickly turned into something much deeper. The protagonist confesses that he only intended to have a fleeting connection but ended up 'xonadin' (falling in love) with her smile and charm. This unexpected emotional attachment is further emphasized by the line 'não era pra viciar, viciei, tô aqui' (I wasn't supposed to get addicted, but I did, and here I am), highlighting his vulnerability and the irresistible pull of her love.

The chorus, 'Arriadin por tu,' which can be loosely translated to 'crazy for you,' encapsulates the essence of the song. The imagery of planting love and harvesting his heart, along with the comparison of her to a star that shines brighter than a constellation, elevates her to an almost mythical status. This poetic language not only conveys the depth of his feelings but also celebrates the transformative power of love, making 'Arriadin Por Tu' a beautiful and relatable love song.
