Asas Feridas

The song 'Asas Feridas' by Hinos Avulsos CCB is a poignant exploration of human suffering, spiritual longing, and divine intervention. The lyrics begin with a deep sense of despair, as the narrator wishes for wings to escape their pain and start anew. This metaphor of flight represents a desire for freedom and relief from the burdens of life. The imagery of being wounded in a war suggests a personal battle, possibly with mental or emotional struggles, where the narrator feels defeated and hopeless.

As the song progresses, the narrator's plea to the Lord becomes more desperate. They express a profound emptiness and fear that their current song might be their last. This moment of vulnerability is met with a heartfelt prayer, asking for the strength to continue despite their wounds. The reference to Lazarus being raised from the dead serves as a powerful reminder of divine power and the possibility of miraculous healing. The narrator's faith is reignited, believing that their affliction cannot stop them from reaching their spiritual goals.

In the latter part of the song, there is a divine response. The Lord reassures the narrator that their pain was part of a greater plan to strengthen them. The promise of healing and the vision of angels and archangels waiting to welcome them into heaven provide immense comfort. The song shifts from a tone of despair to one of triumph and celebration. The imagery of a white horse and an angel with a sword symbolizes divine protection and victory. The communal call to sing and rejoice signifies a collective upliftment, as the narrator's personal journey of faith and resilience becomes a shared experience of divine grace and hope.
