The Return

CantoVerbo

O Retorno

Nos restos que comi
Lembrei-me de onde vim
Eu tinha tudo lá
Na casa do meu pai

Cansado de servir
Juntei minhas coisas e
Clamei minha porção
Do tronco o galho eu cortei

Eu roubei do meu pai, no afã de ser livre me prendi
Escravo do meu querer, buscando o prazer com porcos eu comi

No mundo esbanjei
Anfitrião, fui rei
Comprei deleites vãos
Mas num vazio me encontrei

Queria retornar, distante despertei
Se o vejo implorarei
Dos servos seus, menor serei

Eu roubei do meu pai, no afã de ser livre me prendi
Escravo do meu querer, buscando o prazer com porcos eu comi

Voltando o avistei
Correndo me abraçou
De nada se lembrou
Além do seu eterno amor

Falar nem me deixou
Urgente em celebrar
Meu filho que morreu
Achado foi agora, vivo está

Vejo o preço que meu pai pagou p‘ra eu estar aqui
Me deu roupas para festejar e fez aliança
Graça, amor, justiça e redenção
Que banquete preparou pra mim

Eu voltei pro meu pai, servindo em sua casa eu sou livre

The Return

In the scraps that I ate
I remembered where I came from
I had everything there
In my father's house

Tired of serving
I gathered my things and
Claimed my portion
From the trunk I cut the branch

I stole from my father, in my eagerness to be free I imprisoned myself
Slave to my desires, seeking pleasure I ate with pigs

I squandered in the world
Host, I was king
I bought vain delights
But in emptiness I found myself

I wanted to return, woke up far away
If I see him I will beg
Among his servants, I will be the least

I stole from my father, in my eagerness to be free I imprisoned myself
Slave to my desires, seeking pleasure I ate with pigs

Returning, I saw him
Running, he embraced me
He remembered nothing
Except his eternal love

He didn't let me speak
Urgent to celebrate
My son who died
Was found now, alive

I see the price my father paid for me to be here
He gave me clothes to celebrate and made a covenant
Grace, love, justice, and redemption
What a banquet he prepared for me

I returned to my father, serving in his house I am free
