Ma Chérie Lyrics in English by Mickael Carreira, SYRO
Feitiço translates to "spell" or "charm". It's an enchanting word that evokes magic and captivation.
In the song, the singer describes being caught in his beloved's "feitiço" (spell), indicating he's completely mesmerized and unable to resist her allure. This word beautifully conveys the powerful, almost magical hold she has over him.
Mickael Carreira's "Ma Chérie" featuring SYRO is such a sweet, romantic serenade! It's all about a guy who's had a few too many Chardonnays and is feeling a little tipsy, even mixing up his languages. He apologizes, saying, "Por favor, desculpa si je parle en français" [Please, forgive me if I speak in French]. But even though he's a bit muddled, he knows one thing for sure: he wouldn't trade his love's language for anything. He worries he might be "Ser romântico na hora errada" [Being romantic at the wrong time], but that doesn't stop him from wanting to sing his heart out for her.
He's got a poem ready and just needs the guitar chord to be played. He tells his love, "Se ouvires lágrimas nas palavras Aparece à janela" [If you hear tears in the words Appear at the window], which is such a dramatic and heartfelt plea! He feels completely defenseless to her signals, almost like he's under a spell, saying, "Provo do veneno que me deixa preso a ti" [I taste the poison that leaves me stuck to you]. It's a beautiful song about being completely smitten and unable to resist someone, even if it feels a little overwhelming.
