Cantiga de amor (Portuguese and Galician) or cantiga d'amor (Galician-Portuguese), literally "love song", is a type of literary composition from the Middle Ages, typical of the medieval Galician-Portuguese lyric.
In 1991, the Brazilian rock band Legião Urbana released their fifth album, V, which opened with the song titled Love Song. The song is the first stanza of Pois naci nunca vi Amor, a cantiga de amor written by Nuno Fernandes Torneol in the 13th century which tells the story of the character who since was born never saw love, but have heard about "him" and knows "he" wants to kill him. The character then begs his senhor ("lady", or his love interest) to show the killer or protect him.
