“Quero Te Encontrar” is a feel-good Brazilian funk melody that tells a story of unstoppable love and devotion. The singer waits all week for a brief weekend visit, hiding his worries about money and pretending everything is fine just to enjoy a few hours together. Even when she seems indifferent and unties their emotional knots, he refuses to give up. He is prepared to cross the whole country, driven by an almost alucinada (crazy) passion, because to him she is “minha terra, meu céu, meu mar” — his land, his sky, his sea.
Underneath the catchy rhythm and dance-floor vibe, the lyrics reveal a romantic who finds peace and purpose in the one he loves. It’s a cheerful anthem of persistence: no distance is too great, no obstacle too big, when the reward is the warmth of her gaze and the promise of another “amor gostoso” (sweet love). Listening to this track is like getting an energetic hug from Rio’s nightlife mixed with a heartfelt declaration that true love is worth every mile.
