Aqui Comigo Lyrics in English by Piruka
Pergaminho translates to "parchment" or "scroll". It's a word that evokes a sense of antiquity and romance, standing out from the more modern vocabulary often found in contemporary music.
In the song, the artist sings, "Escrevo a tua canção em esboços num pergaminho" (I write your song in sketches on a parchment). This imagery suggests a timeless dedication and a heartfelt, almost poetic, effort in expressing his feelings, making it a unique and memorable choice.
Piruka's "Aqui Comigo" is a raw and honest plea from someone who's tired of playing games and just wants the person they care about to stay. He's been through a lot, admitting "Eu não quero mentir mais, eu tenho saudades tuas" [I don't want to lie anymore, I miss you]. He even tells her to tell her friends he's "só um amigo" [just a friend] – a classic move to keep things on the down-low, even though his own friends are telling him to stay out on the streets!
He's clearly had some bad experiences, saying "Mulher hoje em dia é bandida" [Women nowadays are thugs] and that they "Querem brincar com os nossos sentimentos" [want to play with our feelings]. But despite all that, he's ready to open up, even if it means showing her the chaos of his life: "Se me abrires a porta de casa tu vais ver um manicómio" [If you open my house door you'll see a madhouse]. He's looking for something real, not "mulheres de plástico" [plastic women], but someone with attitude. He wants her to stay, to be there when he falls, and he's even dreaming of a future, imagining "o nosso beijo por baixo d'um azevinho" [our kiss under a holly tree]. It's a really vulnerable side to him, admitting that "contigo eu paraliso" [with you I freeze] even as he fights for his paradise.
