Já fui neve no mar
Já fui espada na mão
Já fui a corda da lira a vibrar
Já fui servo de um Deus
Vida e morte num momento
Já nasci no barlavento
Já fui erva no chão
Bendito seja o pão
Bendita seja a flor
Benditas as portas do amor
Já fui servo de um Deus
Vida e morte de um momento
Já nasci no barlavento
Já fui erva no chão
Já fui favo de mel
Cajado de pastor
Já fui nuvem correndo no céu
Já fui ceptro de um rei
Arco-íris num instante
Já fui vento do levante
Já fui andarilho e cantor
Bendita seja a paz
Bendita sejas tu
Benditos os peixes do azul
Já fui ceptro de um rei
Arco-íris num instante
Já fui vento do levante
Já fui andarilho e cantor
