Fala paleto Lyrics Translation in English

Certo irmao foi convidado pra pregar em uma igreja

Brother was invited to preach in a church

Mas quando la chegou houve logo uma peleja

But when he arrived, there was a conflict right away

O pastor dizia a ele voce nao prega aqui

The pastor said to him, "You don't preach here"

Nem tampouco nesse púlpito voce poderá subir

Nor can you climb this pulpit

O irmao disse ao pastor o que esta acontecendo

The brother said to the pastor, "What's happening?"

Qual e o meu pecado o Senhor tem que me dizer

What is my sin that the Lord has to tell me?

O pastor dizia a ele nao se trata de pecado

The pastor said to him, "It's not about sin"

Voce e um homem santo da qualidade de jo

You're a holy man of Jo's quality

O unico motivo de voce nao pregar e somente porque voce esta sem paleto

The only reason you're not preaching is simply because you don't have a suit

Depois de uma conversa chegaram num acordo

After a conversation, they reached an agreement

Acertaram com o irmao de pregar em outra semana

They agreed with the brother to preach another week

O irmao ficou zangado e um pouco enfurecido

The brother was angry and a bit furious

Mas atraves de conselho ele ficou convencido

But through advice, he was convinced

O irmao era pobrezinho e estava desempregado

The brother was poor and unemployed

So tinha uma roupa e um sapato furado

He had only one suit and a worn-out shoe

Foi na casa de outro irmao arrumou terno emprestado

He went to another brother's house, borrowed a suit

Arrumou uma gravata e ficou todo alinhado

He got a tie and looked all well-dressed

Passou o dia orando ficou cheio de poder

Spent the day praying, filled with power

Na hora da pregacao ele comecou a dizer

At the time of preaching, he began to say

Fala paletó, paleto nao fala nada

Talk, suit, the suit says nothing

Paleto nao faz jejum, paleto nao le a biblia nem ora de madrugada

The suit doesn't fast, the suit doesn't read the Bible, nor does it pray in the early morning

So eu que saio pelas ruas pregando literatura

Only I go through the streets preaching literature

Pregando de casa em casa, ensinando as escrituras

Preaching from house to house, teaching the scriptures

Nunca falto um dia so, agora fala paleto

I never miss a day, now speak, suit
