Pelas Asas da Fé

“Pelas Asas da Fé” by Quarteto Harmonia Celeste is a deeply spiritual song that explores the transcendent experience of ascending to the heavens through the wings of faith. The lyrics describe a mystical journey where the narrator is lifted to the celestial realms, witnessing divine and awe-inspiring sights. The repeated phrase “pelas asas da fé” (through the wings of faith) emphasizes the power of faith as a vehicle for spiritual elevation and enlightenment.

Upon reaching the heavens, the narrator encounters a magnificent city, a throne, and a crown, each symbolizing different aspects of divine glory and authority. However, the narrator laments the inadequacy of human language, specifically Portuguese, to fully capture and convey the splendor of these heavenly visions. This highlights the ineffable nature of spiritual experiences, suggesting that some aspects of the divine are beyond human comprehension and articulation.

The song invites listeners to embark on their own spiritual journey, suggesting that through faith, they too can witness the wonders of the heavens. The repetition of the invitation to “subir” (ascend) reinforces the idea that this experience is accessible to all who believe. The harmonious and uplifting melody of Quarteto Harmonia Celeste complements the lyrical theme, creating an atmosphere of reverence and inspiration. The song serves as a reminder of the transformative power of faith and the beauty of the divine, encouraging listeners to seek a deeper connection with the spiritual realm.
