Várias Queixas Lyrics in English Gilsons

Picture yourself in a sun-soaked Brazilian street party: drums pulse, bodies sway, and suddenly you spot someone who turns your world upside down. That electric first glance sparks tanto amor that the singer of “Várias Queixas” (Many Complaints) is ready to let this new crush do “whatever you want, even hurt me,” because his heart is overflowing with love. The infectious swing of Olodum—Salvador’s famous Afro-Bahian percussion troupe—propels him forward, urging him to dance, confess, and surrender.

But passion is rarely simple. Between the samba beats he repeats his queixas—his grievances—wondering why this person toys with his emotions even as he begs, “Come be my lover.” The song is a playful tug-of-war between desire and frustration: hurt feelings surface, yet the chorus insists they are “together and mixed,” inseparable on the dance floor and in life. Ultimately, “Várias Queixas” celebrates love’s irresistible pull, reminding listeners that in Brazilian music, even complaints are sung with a smile and a sway.
