Os Conselhos do Padre Cícero

Don't kill anymore
If you stole, don’t steal again
True pilgrims
Live in brotherhood

Jesus Christ on the cross
Gave himself to God the Father
Overcoming evil
He proved his love

In the example of Mary
Who forgave everyone
For the death of her son
She never sought revenge

Fighting injustice
Is a Christian's duty
It’s not violence
That solves the problem

The weakness of the small
Is living in solitude
Together we are strong
In love and forgiveness

Living in brotherhood
Is like water in the desert
Nurturing the seed
Of love in the heart

When I arrived in Juazeiro
I made a resolution
To follow the advice
Of Father Cícero Romão

I offer this blessing
To my guiding godfather
He gave the right words
To break free from captivity
