Ausência Lyrics in English Marília Mendonça

“Ausência” is Marília Mendonça’s witty way of turning heartbreak into empowerment. The Brazilian superstar realizes that the silence from her ex is itself a message. She reviews the relationship, admits she once loved “for two,” then decides it is time to reclaim her dignity. With every line she swaps tears for self-respect, proving that sometimes the best reply is no reply at all.

The chorus is a playful promise: Preocupa não (“don’t worry”) because the singer will not knock on any doors, flood any phones, or beg for attention again. The clever proverb that closes each refrain — “Pra um bom entendedor, meia ausência basta” (“for someone who understands, half an absence is enough”) — sums up the lesson. If the other person can’t see her worth, even a small dose of distance should make that crystal clear. In short, “Ausência” transforms the pain of being ignored into the power of walking away with your head held high.
