O Crente Miguel Lyrics Translation in English
Elizeu GomesPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Um certo crente, seu nome era Miguel
A certain believer, his name was Miguel
Morava humilde na casinha da fazenda
He lived humbly in the farmhouse cottage
Fiel a Deus, companheiro de trabalho
Faithful to God, a fellow worker
Seu testemunho era firme e verdadeiro
His testimony was firm and true
O seu patrão, fazendeiro muito rico
His boss, a very rich farmer
Um certo dia, encontrou-se com Miguel
One day, he met Miguel
Miguel lhe disse:
Miguel said to him:
- Meu patrão tome cuidado, sonhei que esta noite morria
- My boss, be careful, I dreamt that tonight I would die
O homem mais rico do vale.
The richest man in the valley.
O fazendeiro deu meia volta, chegou no casarão
The farmer turned around, went to the mansion
E ficou preocupado
And became worried
Ele sabia quem era o Miguel
He knew who Miguel was
Um crente fiel que conhecia Deus....
A faithful believer who knew God...
O fazendeiro chamou varios doutores
The farmer called several doctors
Ficou deitado para ver o tempo passar
He lay down to see the time pass
E o capatas tomou conta da fazenda
And the foreman took charge of the farm
E o fazendeiro querendo ignorar
And the farmer wanting to ignore
Amanheceu, nada tinha acontecido
It dawned, nothing had happened
E o fazendeiro com saúde apareceu
And the farmer appeared in good health
Mas a notícia foi chegando na varanda
But the news reached the veranda
O tumulto era tão grande, pois o Miguel faleceu...
The turmoil was so great because Miguel had passed away...
Melhor que tudo é ter nada e ter tudo
Better than everything is to have nothing and have everything
Você pode não ter nada, mas ter tudo com Jesus
You may have nothing, but have everything with Jesus
E o fazendeiro pensou que era rico
And the farmer thought he was rich
Mas Miguel era mais rico
But Miguel was richer
Pois estava com Jesus.
Because he was with Jesus.
