Fado da Despedida

Being a fado singer was my dream
But this was not my fate
God has traced another path for me
Full of love and affection
Made me walk to another side

I abandoned the guitar
I said goodbye and went far away
I left everything I liked
To answer the call
Because my destiny is to be a monk

The longing I felt
I don't know how to describe them well
For this life of light
That leads us to the truth
It's worth what I left

Don't cry for my fate
And don't have mercy on me
I'm happy and only for this
I gave myself completely to Christ
I never felt alone again
