Chá de camomila literally means 'chamomile tea'. It's a unique and memorable phrase that's also the title of this gentle, soothing song.
In the lyrics, Mariana Nolasco sings, "Chá de camomila é o que você precisa" (Chamomile tea is what you need). The tea serves as a beautiful metaphor for taking a moment to calm down, breathe, and care for oneself, setting the song's relaxing and affectionate tone.
“Chá De Camomila” feels like opening the door to a cozy living room on a lazy afternoon. Mariana Nolasco sings about that irresistible urge to meet someone special, step inside, leave the lights on, and simply breathe together. Chamomile tea becomes her sweet metaphor for calm and care — the warm cup that slows down the rush of life while she shares gentle hugs, lingering gazes, and playful “para papas.”
At its heart, the song is an invitation to cherish simple, unhurried moments with the people we love. Mariana promises comfort, asks how the other person has been, and reminds us that life looks prettier when we take it one thing at a time. Overflowing with Brazilian warmth and soft acoustic vibes, “Chá De Camomila” is both a love note and a self-care checklist: breathe, relax, and let tenderness steep like your favorite herbal tea.
Mariana Nolasco was born in Campinas, Brazil, in 1998, and at 13 began posting acoustic covers, just her voice and a guitar, recorded in her bedroom in Mogi Guaçu. Her versions of classics by Elba Ramalho, Alceu Valença and Gilberto Gil made her name on YouTube, where her channel has passed 450 million views.
Fans paid for her self-titled debut album through crowdfunding, and in 2018 she sold out a tour across ten states. She was the only Brazilian singer on a 2020 remake of We Are the World, has recorded with Boyce Avenue and Vitor Kley, and has played Rock in Rio. Her album Quem É Ela? (2023) earned a Latin Grammy nomination for best engineered album.
