Preciso Me Encontrar Lyrics in English Liniker , Ilú Obá De Min

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Preciso Me Encontrar by Liniker from Portuguese to English.
Let me go
I need to walk
I'll wander around looking
Laugh so I don't cry
I wanna watch the sunrise
See the river waters run
Hear the birds sing
I wanna be born
I wanna live
Let me go
I need to walk
I'll wander around looking
Laugh so I don't cry
If somebody asks about me
Say I'll only come back
After I find myself
I wanna watch the sunrise
See the river waters run
Hear the birds sing
I wanna be born
I wanna live
Let me go
I need to walk
I'll wander around looking
Laugh so I don't cry
Let me go, I need to walk
I'll wander around looking
Laugh so I don't cry
Let me go, I need to walk
I'll wander around looking
Laugh so I don't cry
Let me go, I need to walk
Smile so I don't cry
Let me go, I need to walk
I'll wander around looking
Laugh so I don't cry

me encontrarto find myself

Me encontrar literally means "to find myself". It combines the verb encontrar (to find) with the reflexive pronoun me (myself).

This phrase is the heart of the song, featured in its title "Preciso Me Encontrar" (I Need to Find Myself). It represents a profound journey of self-discovery, where the singer must leave everything behind to connect with their true identity. It’s a beautiful and relatable expression for anyone on a path of personal growth.

“Preciso Me Encontrar” is a soulful manifesto of self-discovery. Over Liniker’s velvety vocals and the powerful Afro-Brazilian percussion of Ilú Obá De Min, the narrator asks for permission to go, not out of rebellion but out of necessity. Each verse is a gentle insistence: they need to wander, laugh instead of cry, and let nature’s simple miracles—the sunrise, flowing rivers, birdsong—guide their inner compass.

The journey is both literal and emotional. By stepping away, the singer hopes to be “reborn,” to return only after finding the missing pieces of themselves. It’s an invitation to embrace change, trust the healing rhythm of life, and remember that sometimes the only way back home is by first walking away.
