English Translation

Do lodo te tirei com as minhas mãos

I took you out of the mud with my hands

Te amassei te fiz se parecer comigo

I kneaded you, made you look like me

Meu bonequinho de barro, do pó te fiz, do barro

My little clay doll, from dust I made you, from clay


Como não bastasse, por amor

As if it weren't enough, out of love

Eu soprei em ti o fôlego da vida

I breathed into you the breath of life

Meu bonequinho de barro, do pó te fiz, do barro

My little clay doll, from dust I made you, from clay


Pra que a vaidade não te afaste de mim

So that vanity doesn't distance you from me

Pra que meu nome não se esqueças

So that you don't forget my name

Promessas tenho pra ti

I have promises for you

Meu bonequinho de barro, eu te amo

My little clay doll, I love you

Meu bonequinho de barro, meu amor

My little clay doll, my love


No início era o verbo e o verbo desceu

In the beginning was the Word and the Word came down

Tracei um plano só para não te perder

I devised a plan just so I wouldn't lose you

Meu bonequinho de barro, do pó te fiz, do barro

My little clay doll, from dust I made you, from clay

Moido no madeiro por amor a mim

Crushed on the wood for love of me

E por amor a ti eu entreguei meu filho

And for love of you, I gave my son

Meu bonequinho de barro, do pó te fiz, do barro

My little clay doll, from dust I made you, from clay


Pra que o pecado não te afaste de mim

So that sin doesn't distance you from me

A eternidade te espera, pois ao meu lado estarás

Eternity awaits you, for you will be by my side

Meu bonequinho de barro, eu te amo (te amo)

My little clay doll, I love you (I love you)

Meu bonequinho de barro, meu amor

My little clay doll, my love


Pra que o pecado não te afaste de mim

So that sin doesn't distance you from me

A eternidade te espera, pois ao meu lado estarás

Eternity awaits you, for you will be by my side

Meu bonequinho de barro, eu te amo (2x)

My little clay doll, I love you (2x)

Meu bonequinho de barro, meu amor (2x)

My little clay doll, my love (2x)
