Ar Da Sua Graça Lyrics in English Clarice Falcão

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ar Da Sua Graça by Clarice Falcão from Portuguese to English.
Look around
It's been a while since I looked around
I don't even know what's around me
I only look at you
Even if you're not there
A face goes by
And it might even go by again
How am I gonna memorize a face
If that face isn't yours
If that face isn't yours
You don't grace me with your presence anymore
And nothing's funny, and nothing works
And nobody has a face, and this tightness in my chest
Doesn't even give me pleasure to breathe
Look ahead
See if you can see us
Squinting your eyes, suddenly
You can see it too
I swear you can see it
But if you can't
Stay like that, just like you want
Me, here in this kinda 'meh' world
This world isn't mine
This world is mine now
You don't grace me with your presence anymore
And nothing's funny, nothing works
And nobody has a face, and this tightness in my chest
Doesn't even give me pleasure to breathe
You don't grace me with your presence anymore
And nothing's funny, nothing works
And nobody has a face, and this tightness in my chest
Doesn't even give me pleasure to breathe

SONG MEANING

Imagine strolling through a bustling street, yet every passer-by looks like a blank silhouette and even the air feels thinner. That is the surreal scene Clarice Falcão paints in Ar Da Sua Graça (“The Breeze of Your Grace”). Over a deceptively light melody, the Brazilian singer-songwriter confesses that she has been staring at one person for so long she has forgotten how to look at anything else. The moment this special someone disappears, colors fade, faces lose definition, and even breathing loses its charm.

In just a few bittersweet verses, Clarice turns ordinary directions like “look around” and “look ahead” into a playful checklist of heartbreak. Each command reveals how stuck the narrator is in her own longing: she tries to notice the world, fails, and returns to remembering the absent lover. The chorus sums it up with a clever wordplay on “ar” (air) and “graça” (grace, fun, charm). Without that person, nothing has grace, nothing works, and life itself is short of air. The song is quirky, relatable, and a poetic reminder that love can make the entire universe feel either vibrant or utterly meh.
