Mary's Diary

Diário de Maria

I look into your eyes and amidst so much weepingOlho nos Teus olhos, e em meio a tanto pranto
It seems unbelievable that they crucified youParece mentira que O crucificaram
That you are the little one, that I cradledQue és o pequeno que eu embalei
Who fell asleep so quickly in my armsQue adormecia tão logo em meus braços
The one who smiled as he looked at the skyAquele que sorria ao olhar o céu
And when he prayed, he became seriousE quando rezava, ficava sério

On this wood I see the little oneSobre este madeiro, vejo o pequeno
Who spoke among the doctors in the TempleQue entre os doutores falava no templo
Who, when I asked, answered calmlyQue, quando perguntei, respondeu com calma
Who took care of God's mattersQue Se encarregava dos assuntos de Deus
That same child who is on the crossEsse mesmo menino que está na cruz
The King of men is called JesusO Rei dos homens se chama Jesus

That same man was no longer a childEsse mesmo homem já não era um menino
When at that wedding I asked him for more wineQuando, naquelas bodas, Lhe pedi mais vinho
Who fed so many peopleQue alimentou a tantas pessoas
And looked directly at the poor and sickE aos pobres e enfermos, os olhou de frente
He smiled at those he loved so muchSorriu com aqueles a quem tanto amou
And cried silently when his friend diedE chorou em silêncio ao morrer Seu amigo

The evening falls, the sky becomes cloudyJá cai a tarde, o céu fica nublado
Soon you will return to your eternal FatherLogo voltarás ao Teu Pai eterno
Sleep, little one, sleep my childDorme, pequeno, dorme, meu menino
To whom I gave all my affectionA quem eu entreguei todo o meu carinho
As in Nazareth, on that morningComo em Nazaré, naquela manhã
Here is your servant, here is your slaveEis aqui Tua serva, eis aqui Tua escrava
