O Cego de Jericó Lyrics Translation in English
Rose NascimentoPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Enquanto para Jericó
While to Jericho
O bom Jesus passava
Good Jesus was passing by
Um cego, filho de Jacó
A blind man, son of Jacob
Sem se cansar clamava
Tirelessly cried out
Jesus, ó Filho de Davi
Jesus, O Son of David
Tem compaixão de mim, Senhor!
Have compassion on me, Lord!
Jesus, ó Filho de Davi
Jesus, O Son of David
Atende ao meu clamor!
Listen to my cry!
A multidão vendo-o clamar
The crowd, seeing him cry out
Sê quieto, lhe dizia
Be quiet, they told him
Mas ele sem a escutar
But he, without listening
Mais forte repetia
Repeated louder
Jesus então mandou chamar
Jesus then commanded to call
O cego que gritava
The blind man who was crying out
Que veio logo, sem tardar
He came quickly, without delay
Mas inda assim clamava
Yet still he cried out
Jesus pergunta com prazer
Jesus asked with joy
Que queres que te faça?
What do you want me to do for you?
Jesus, eu quero hoje ver
Jesus, I want to see today
Por Teu poder e graça
By Your power and grace
Então Jesus lhe respondeu
Then Jesus answered him
Vai, a tua fé te salvou
Go, your faith has saved you
E logo viu, o Bartimeu
And immediately Bartimaeus saw
E ao bom Jesus louvou!
And praised the good Jesus!
