Soldadinho de Deus
Guatupê e Guaratuba
Little Soldier of God
An 18-year-old boy
Enlisted to fulfill his duty
Presented himself before the commander
Always ready to obey him
The commander, a human beast
Let out terrifying screams
The little soldier, a religious one
Prayed to the kind God
Without the chief knowing
One day his commander
Found out what was happening
The little soldier only spoke of God
To him, this was rebellion
He was summoned to his office
With arrogance, the superior said
I am the one in charge of this platoon
And your religion
Is pure fantasy
The commander said to the little soldier
With the intention to humiliate him
Do you see that truck in the yard
That has been out of order for a long time?
I know you can't drive
Ask your God to teach you
If you drive that truck
I will kneel on the ground
And worship your God
The little soldier entered the cabin
Guided by his Lord
He drove around the block
And returned to his superior
The truck needs some repairs
I can do that for you
The commander knelt on the ground
And asked God for forgiveness
Saying the truck
Is without an engine
