Translation

A estrela de Jacó

The star of Jacob

Com seus raios penetrantes

With its penetrating rays

A esperança de Israel

The hope of Israel

Com uma face radiante

With a radiant face


Ela é o alvo da lei

It is the target of the law

Que surgia mui constante

That emerged very constant

E o mais que se dizia

And the more that was said

Que falava profecia

That spoke prophecy

Da estrela tão brilhante

Of the star so bright


Não somente como estrela

Not only as a star

O senhor se apresentava

The Lord presented himself

Mas Isaque, o cordeiro

But Isaac, the lamb

No altar se colocava

Was placed on the altar


E José que foi vendido

And Joseph, who was sold

Pelos seus que o desprezava

By those who despised him

Foi no Egito prisioneiro

Was a prisoner in Egypt

Que custou trinta dinheiros

Costing thirty pieces of silver

Preço que simbolizava

A price that symbolized


E lá nas águas de mara

And there in the waters of Marah

Uma planta purificava

A plant purified

Em Massá e Meribá

In Massah and Meribah

Uma rocha apresentava

A rock was presented


No arraial uma serpente

In the camp, a serpent

Numa estaca pendurada

Hung on a stake

E na funda de Davi

And in David's sling

Era cristo aquela pedra

Christ was that stone

Balançava, balançava

Swinging, swinging


E na funda de Davi

And in David's sling

Era cristo aquela pedra

Christ was that stone

Balançava, balançava

Swinging, swinging
