about

Deep thanks to all the people and life situations that permited to create this music and the beautiful co-created video born from her : www.youtube.com/watch?v=na-Uqqj-XQE&t=6s

Thank you Rui Aires to come with me in that musical journey which brought us inside of our selves.

Gratitude to my father who helped with so much presence, for the final sound to be sweet to our ears.

Now we are sending this song to the four winds, for the seeds of our heart to spread around *

lyrics

Jogo de espelhos

Amigo, irmã
Vizinho, avózinha
Palhaços, maestros
Estrangeiro na rua
Companheiro de vida
Espelhos

Se olhas para os teus pés
Não verás
o que querem te mostrar
Não verás como tudo a volta se espelha
Te espelha

Fala
uma nuvem
O vento sussurra
no momento certo
Levanta voo uma ave
Ressoando
com o que dizias
Surge uma ideia
Com o cheiro duma árvore

Andamos numa grande espiral de espelhos
Onde tudo se reflete
a si mesmo
Espelho espalha
o reflexo fiel
Do que eu sou
Do que é para ver

Te agradeço espelho
Por me mostrar sempre
O que eu
não quero ver
Te agradeço espelho
Por me mostrar sempre
O que eu
devo ver

Vejo a minha raiva, a minha tristeza
Paranóias, rejeito, alegrias, respeito
Vejo o grande que eu sou
O teu brilho é o meu
Só posso ver o que eu sou
Só posso ver o que eu sou, já

Andamos numa grande espiral de espelhos
Onde tudo se reflete
a si mesmo
Espelho espalha
o reflexo fiel
Do que eu sou
Do que é para ver

Te agradeço espelho
Por me mostrar sempre
O que eu
não quero ver
Te agradeço espelho
Por me mostrar sempre
O que eu
devo ver

Agradeço aos filhos
Implacáveis reflexos
Onde aflora a sombra
Onde nasce a luz

Mãe, será que o universo inteiro
É um grande espelho?
Onde tudo o que vês fora
Esta também bem a dentro

Eu sou, sou o olho que se olha a ele próprio
Eu te olho mas me vejo
Quando me olhas com olhos limpos tu verás
Com clareza quem tu és

Se tens medo,
fecha os olhos e espera
Só um pouco
para o coração abrir e ver

Eu sou, sou o olho que se olha a ele próprio
Eu te olho mas me vejo
Quando me olhas com olhos limpos tu verás
Com clareza quem tu és

Sinto vertigem
deste movimento
profundo
Não é para entender
este misterioso
jogo

Que chama
a inclinar-se
pela terra

Que me chama
A inclinar-me
pela terra

Que me chama
A inclinar-me
pela terra

...........................
(english version)

Mirrors game

Friend, sister
neighbor, little grandmother
clowns, teachers
stranger in the street
life partner
Mirrors

If you look at your feet
you will not see
what they want to show you
You will not see
how all around, is mirrorring itself
and mirrors you

A cloud
is speaking
The wind whispers
at the right time
A bird flys away
resonating
with what you were saying
An idea comes up
with the smell of a tree

We are walking in a great spiral of mirrors
where everything reflects to itself
Mirror, spread
the faithful reflection
of what I am
of what has to be seen

I thank you, mirror
of always showing me what I
don’t want to see
I thank you, mirror
of always showing me what I
do have to see

I see my anger, my sadness
Paranoias, rejection, joy, respect
I see how great I am
Your brilliance is mine
I can only see what I am
I can only see what I am
already

We are walking in a great spiral of mirrors
where everything reflects to itself
Mirror, spread
the faithful reflection
of what I am
of what has to be seen

I thank you, mirror
of always showing me what I
don’t want to see
I thank you, mirror
of always showing me what I
do have to see

I thank the daughers and sons
relentless reflections
where the shadow emerge
where born the light

Mother, may the whole universe
is a great mirror?
Where everything you see outside
is fully inside too.

I am, I am the eye that looks at itself
I look at you but i see myself
When you look at me with clean eyes you will see
clearly, who you are

If you are afraid,
close your eyes and wait
just a little bit
for the heart to open and see

I am, I am the eye that looks at itself
I look at you but i see myself
When you look at me with clean eyes you will see
clearly, who you are

I feel dizzy
of this deep movement
It is not necessary to understand
this mysterious
game

Which calls
to bow down
to the earth

Which calls
to bow me
down to the earth

Which calls
to bow me
down to the earth
