Forasteiro Lyrics in English Tiago Iorc , Silva

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Forasteiro by Tiago Iorc from Portuguese to English.
Nobody said
That I could
Nor pointed me
Bridge or guide
Wind encouraged
I came in the gust
How I arrived
I can't explain
I didn't plan
Such opposite gaze
That saved me
From monotony
A stranger
From me, I hope for a yes
Until I find
A spark of an end
Restart, like this
Life clearing up
I won't deny everything
In my love will undress me
If necessary
In all pain
Another melody
A stranger
From me, I hope for a yes
Until I find
A spark of an end
Restart, like this
Life clearing up

SONG MEANING

“Forasteiro” paints the picture of a wanderer who follows the pull of the wind rather than any map or signpost. Tiago Iorc and Silva sing of arriving in unfamiliar places without planning, yet finding liberation in that very spontaneity. The lyrics celebrate the spark that rescues us from monotony—a sudden, opposite gaze, a fresh melody, a tiny centelha (spark) that hints both at an ending and a brand-new start.

More than a tale of physical travel, the song is a gentle hymn to inner journeys. It urges listeners to shed whatever holds them back, to let love undress their fears, and to greet every unknown as a chance to rewrite the score of life. The mood is airy and hopeful, reminding us that even in moments of pain we can find “outra melodia,” another tune that brightens the road ahead.
