English Translation

Da cidade de Betânia

From the city of Bethany

Bem cedo Jesus saiu

Early in the morning, Jesus went out

Sentiu fome e bem distante

He felt hungry, and far away

Logo uma figueira viu

Soon, he saw a fig tree

Foi olha se tinha frutos

He went to see if it had fruits

Mas só folhas descobriu

But only leaves he found


Figueira tão formosa

Oh, beautiful fig tree

Tão bela que tu estás

So lovely as you are

Em ti vim procurar fruto

In you, I came looking for fruit

Mas não pude encontrar

But I could not find any

Segundo a minha palavra

According to my word

Figueira tu secarás

Fig tree, you shall wither


Seus discípulos percebendo

His disciples realizing

Que a figueira secou

That the fig tree had withered

Ficaram admirados

They were amazed

Do poder do seu senhor

At the power of their Lord

Disseram: Grande profeta

They said: A great prophet

Entre nós se levantou

Has risen among us


Porque se tiveres fé

For if you have faith

Sem dúvidas no coração

Without doubts in your heart

Dirias a este monte

You would say to this mountain

Lança-te no mar e então

Throw yourself into the sea, and then

Verias a força da fé

You would see the power of faith

Fluindo pela oração

Flowing through prayer
