Un texte amusant que cette musique entrainante souligne admirablement bien .... Très sympathique à écouter.

wonderful composition. I felt a great sense of exhilaration!

good Lord this is one of the best exercises in irony ever     -- super fixe --tem muita piada

I could not help but laugh out loud with this interpretation of the famous tune.  Brilliant lyrical, satirical lyrics, and first-rate musicianship.

Nice arrangement, and really entertaining!

A fabulous track and amazing lyric.....super production....

「狂犬の目に真っすぐな道ばかり」
口の端に唾泡立てて走り行く

カギ括弧内は黒澤明の映画『野良犬』（1949年）より引用。

"A mad dog can only see the straight and narrow path."
He runs down that path, saliva foaming at the edges of his mouth.

The quote in double quotation marks is from Akira Kurosawa's film "Stray Dog" (1949).

OMNIVORE

The hills are alive with the sound of music,
but not for long.

Heed to mee, insects of the Spring
birds on the trees,
worms of the earth,
reptiles and mammals:

Don't be deceived
by the sound of music.
Where do you think she'll find
the calories required to perform that singing?

Watch out!
Besides her tongue and the vocal cords,
she's got incisors, she's got canines,
premolars and molars.
Watch out!
She's an omnivore!
Watch out!
Whatever your species, whatever your kingdom,
beware!
Fried chickens, stewed pigs, roasted cows,
you're just a few of her favourite things.
Even scales:
"Do - a dear, a female dear..."
I told you: She's obsessed with meat.
I rest my case.
The hills were alive with the sound of music...

The title "Ballad for Alma" reminded me of an episode in the Book of Mormon, where the son of a presiding high priest went among the people, telling them to disbelief his father. Here I imagined what could be the father thoughts, with a small meditation on the nature of hope, faith, and charity.

BALLAD FOR ALMA

No one wants to be alone,
either in bliss or sorrow.
Angels above invite.
Demons from hell entice.

In the great fight for the souls
you chose to disbelieve it all,
join the skeptics, praise  the world,
delighted to play with fire.

Still I hope you'll come back home.
Hope is belief and desire.
New hearts are given to some.
Beliefs are our choice alone.

And then there's faith.
Faith is more than wishfull thinking.
Faith is hope with revelation
from the subtle mighty voice
that can burn, but cannot lie.

Thus I trust that voice to warn you.
Then you'll see and then you'll cry.
From the deepness of despair,
in the dire and lonely night,
all will seem beyond repair.
But what I told you will come to mind.
And then you'll remember the name you should call,
and it's going to be allright.

There's no charity in darkness:
It's a feature of the light.
Demons from hell entice,
but love will always invite.

Lyrics:
Hey, Wildflower
It’s what you call me when I'm in the deep.
Your voice drifts to my high tower.
As I’m watching for that setting sun to keep

But if you wonder how I feel about you, 
if my love is real

Well, I’m a wildflower
Unbridled like a summer storm
And in your garden I belong 
Where the Robin sings me like song 
And I’ll be basking in your sunlight
In your gentle rain I’ll feel right
Beneath it all..   a Wildflower

Instrumental

My words fail to reflect my mind,
To tell you how I feel in side.. 

‘Cause I’m your Wildflower
Unbridled like a summer storm
But in your garden I belong 
Where the Robin sings me like a song 
And I’ll be basking in your sunlight
In your gentle rain I’ll feel right
Beneath it all..  Your Wildflower 
Beneath it all..  Your Wildflower

I've been making music with Pedro Castro since 1972. At the time, we created the alternative rock band Petrus Castrus. The music I'm placing here are just the home recordings of ongoing projects and ideas. I created a few playlists (Inéditos) according to language (PO - Portuguese; EN - English; SP - Spanish; FR - French; IT - Italian), and also for concept albums (Três Jardins). There are two long tracks (Mediterrâneo and Isaías) for full concept albums. A playlist called Synergies gathers the collaboration projects with other musicians in the fantastic SoundCloud community.

Petrus Castrus edited records can be found on Spotify and Soundcloud. See the Facebook Petrus Castrus page for more details, including comments about the recordings uploaded here. 

We are both amateur musicians, i.e. music lovers. As for me, I'm just an electrical engineer with a master in AI that really loves creating music and use it to share ideas. That is why all tracks include lyrics or texts.

Enjoy!
