O Semeador e o Ceifeiro Lyrics Translation in English

Semeei a semente, sim na primavera

I sowed the seed, yes, in the spring

Reguei-a com lágrimas, choro e dor

I watered it with tears, weeping and pain

Mas outro talvez ceifará o meu trigo

But perhaps another will reap my wheat

Com gozo trazendo ao Senhor

With joy bringing it to the Lord

Vez após vezes a minha alma sente

Time after time, my soul feels

Angústia e choro do semeador

Anguish and tears of the sower

Mas o que semeia tanto como o que ceifa

But the one who sows, as well as the one who reaps

Terão recompensas das mãos do Senhor

Will have rewards from the hands of the Lord

O ceifeiro recolhe com gozo os frutos

The reaper gathers the fruits with joy

Nem sempre sabendo a dor que custou

Not always knowing the pain it cost

Para quem trabalhou tanto com Sol ou chuva

For those who worked so much with sun or rain

E com paciência a semente plantou

And with patience planted the seed

Vez após vezes a minha alma sente

Time after time, my soul feels

Angústia e choro do semeador

Anguish and tears of the sower

Mas o que semeia tanto como o que ceifa

But the one who sows, as well as the one who reaps

Terão recompensas das mãos do Senhor

Will have rewards from the hands of the Lord
