“Devagarinho” feels like a warm sunset over the beaches of Bahia. Gilsons - the trio descended from Brazilian music legend Gilberto Gil - blend gentle samba-soul grooves with the smoky voice of Mariana Volker and a spoken cameo by iconic actress Fernanda Montenegro. Right from the borrowed verse of Brazilian poet Carlos Drummond de Andrade, the song places love in a vast, starry universe. If “all a creature can do among other creatures is love,” then the singers choose to spin in that cosmic choreography, inviting us to listen, sway and feel.
The lyrics orbit around someone’s mesmerizing green eyes and the patient promise of a slow-burn romance. The narrator wonders what hidden galaxies lie behind that gaze, waits for a long-promised kiss and even offers the moon - but only when the time is right. “Devagarinho” means “slowly,” and the track celebrates savoring affection at an unhurried pace, like letting waves lap at your feet. Love here is gentle, deliberate and vast, echoing the rhythm of tides and celestial cycles. Press play, relax your shoulders and let the song teach you how to fall in love one soft beat at a time.
