Song Meaning of “Pranto Escondido – Ao Vivo” by Trio Parada Dura
Pranto Escondido, a ballad sung live by the country music group Trio Parada Dura, is a sensitive ode to loss and sorrow. With soulful acoustic guitar and lyrics sung in the native tongue of the band, the song chronicles the pain of a man coming to terms with a broken heart.
The lyrics describe a man whose time of sorrow is almost over, but not completely. He is still in the process of letting go and coming to terms with his pain, yet still finds the strength to take comfort in his faith and hope for brighter days. He yearns for the strength to bury his sorrow, for the anguish in his heart to be easier to bear, and to heal the wounds he feels from the end of a difficult relationship.
The song speaks of resilience and the endurance of the human spirit in the face of tragedy. Even when it seems impossible to move forward, that the pain is too deep, the song reminds us that a ray of light is still possible. The chorus speaks of how sometimes it takes away the smallest things to ease the pain, and the final lines remind us that the love and kindness of another person can help us face the pain.
Trio Parada Dura’s live performance of Pranto Escondido gives us a beautiful reminder of the power of love and compassion to bring us back to life and hope, when faced with the deepest sorrow and loss.
