A Felicidade

In 'A Felicidade,' Juninho Cassimiro delves into the profound spiritual journey of seeking divine connection as the ultimate source of happiness. The song opens with a rhetorical question, 'Além de Vós, o que há pra mim no céu?' (Besides You, what is there for me in heaven?), immediately setting a tone of deep devotion and prioritization of the divine over all earthly matters. This sentiment is further emphasized with the line, 'Se Vos possuo nada mais me atrai aqui' (If I possess You, nothing else attracts me here), highlighting the artist's belief that true fulfillment and contentment are found solely in a relationship with God.

Cassimiro continues to express a sense of spiritual wealth and inheritance, stating, 'A minha herança eterna é o meu Deus' (My eternal inheritance is my God). This line suggests that the artist views his connection with God as his most valuable possession, surpassing all material wealth and earthly desires. The lyrics, 'O meu Deus é a minha riqueza, Tudo mais perde o seu valor' (My God is my wealth, everything else loses its value), reinforce this idea, portraying a life where divine presence overshadows all other passions and pursuits.

The chorus, 'Para mim a felicidade é me aproximar de Deus' (For me, happiness is to draw near to God), encapsulates the core message of the song. Cassimiro's repeated reference to 'os Vossos altares' (Your altars) symbolizes a place of worship and communion with the divine, underscoring the importance of spiritual practices in achieving true happiness. The song concludes with a reverent acknowledgment of God as 'Senhor dos exércitos, meu Rei e meu Deus' (Lord of hosts, my King and my God), solidifying the artist's unwavering devotion and the centrality of God in his pursuit of happiness.
