Home / Lyrics Translation / Mimicat / Mundo Ao Contrário

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mundo Ao Contrário by Mimicat from Portuguese to English.

If I tell you I never want to see you again

Cover your eyes and ears, I'm a hopeless case

If I ever tell you I'm gonna run away

You know well, it'll be with you, on a boat bound for infinity

And if someday fate makes us choose

I'll chase your hug, I'll fall into your lap

If we're crazy, if I only want to lose myself

Our primary blue sky, our world upside down

Then swear you're my cure

My holy remedy, the air I need

A breath of tenderness

Swear you're my cure

My holy remedy, the air I need

Swear

Swear, swear, swear

Every time I slip just to see you

I turn the world inside out, I go back to the start

And every time you know I'm gonna fall

It'll be there in our shelter, all the way down and only with you

If time comes after us to take us

We're sure of our path, we escape nice and slow

If there's no rush, no set time to arrive

Then we stay a little longer in our half-crazy world

Then swear you're my cure

My holy remedy, the air I need

A breath of tenderness

Swear you're my cure

My holy remedy, the air I need

Swear

Swear, swear, swear

Swear

That you're my cure

My holy remedy, the air I need

Swear

That you're my cure

I only want you so much because I need you

Swear

SONG MEANING

Mundo Ao Contrário ("Upside-Down World") is a vibrant love anthem where two partners promise to stick together, no matter how crazy life gets. The singer admits she can be unpredictable, even threatening to run away, yet every wild idea ends with him by her side—sailing "toward infinity," hiding in their secret refuge, or simply lingering in their own little universe. Love turns their world upside down, but that chaos feels like freedom.

The repeated plea “Jura” (“Swear”) is the heartbeat of the song: Swear you are my cure, my holy remedy, the air I need. In other words, their relationship is both a thrilling adventure and a soothing medicine. Whenever she “slips” or “falls,” he is her safe landing spot, and if time itself tries to pull them apart, they will just "escape slowly" together. It is a playful, passionate celebration of a bond so strong it rewrites the rules of reality—creating a bright blue sky and an upside-down world just for two.
