Anjos Lyrics in English Diogo Piçarra , Carolina Deslandes

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Anjos by Diogo Piçarra from Portuguese to English.
After all angels don't fly
Didn't even need to look
Up to the sky to find you
In the end I'm the one who flies
So I can hold you
I promise I'll never let you go
After all angels don't fly
They fly
They fly
I need you forever
Because when something's sincere
I find what I want inside
And I don't always get it right
But I wait and it ends up working out
With you I know I'm alive
Because I already have you near
I don't even know how I deserve this
Heaven's a place so close
I promise I'll never let you fall
I know we've got everything to work out
Since the first day I saw you
After all angels don't fly
Didn't even need to look
Up to the sky to find you
In the end I'm the one who flies
So I can hold you
I promise I'll never let you go
After all angels don't fly
They fly
They fly
After all angels don't fly
They fly
They fly
I don't forget
I asked for so many things
And now I just give thanks
You arrived and from far away
I felt it was just the beginning
You brought me peace
That I only know by your side
I know I don't deserve you
Heaven's a place so close
I promise I'll never let you fall
I know we've got everything to work out
Since the first day I saw you
After all angels don't fly
Didn't even need to look
Up to the sky to find you
In the end I'm the one who flies
So I can hold you
I promise I'll never let you go
After all angels don't fly

SONG MEANING

Anjos spins a sweet surprise: the “angel” the singers are looking for never had to descend from the sky, because that heavenly presence is already standing right in front of them. When Diogo Piçarra and Carolina Deslandes repeat that “afinal anjos não voam” (after all, angels don’t fly), they flip the usual fairy-tale script. In this love story, it is the human narrator who feels light enough to soar, just to hold the person who makes life feel like paradise on Earth.

Beyond the catchy chorus lies a heartfelt pledge. The duo celebrates a bond built on sincerity, gratitude, and mutual rescue: “Prometo nunca te largar” (I promise to never let you go) and “O céu é um lugar aqui tão perto” (Heaven is a place so close). Their message is simple yet powerful—real love does not need wings to be magical; it turns everyday moments into something divine. Listeners are invited to believe that when affection is genuine, it grounds you, lifts you, and brings the sky within arm’s reach.
