Jesus Nazareno Lyrics Translation in English

Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Jesus nazareno
Jesus of Nazareth
Pregado na cruz
Nailed to the cross
Coberto de sangue
Covered in blood
Seu rosto ficou
His face remained
Seu rosto sereno
His serene face
Qual anjo divino
Like a divine angel
Coroa de espinho
Crown of thorns
O povo lhe deu
The people gave Him
Eloi, eloi
Eloi, Eloi
Lama sabactani
Lama sabactani
Clamava ao pai
He cried to the Father
O divino Jesus
The divine Jesus
O bom redentor
The good Redeemer
De novo clamou
He cried out again
Sem forças porém
Without strength, however
O mestre expirou
The master expired
Não se maldizia
He did not curse
Da ingratidão
The ingratitude
Que o povo fizera
That the people had done
Sem ter compaixão
Without compassion
Lhe deram vinagre
They gave Him vinegar
Jesus recusou
Jesus refused
Sentindo agonia
Feeling agony
Da morte e da dor
Of death and pain
A luz se fez trevas
Light turned into darkness
A terra tremeu
The earth trembled
Morrendo na cruz
Dying on the cross
O filho de Deus
The Son of God
Rasgou-se o véu
The veil was torn
Da separação
Of separation
Nos dando a graça
Granting us grace
A paz e o perdão
Peace and forgiveness
