Quando Virá Senhor
Quando virá, Senhor, o dia
Em que apareça o Salvador
E se efetue a profecia
Nasceu no mundo o Redentor?
Orvalhai lá do alto, ó céus
E as nuvens chovam o justo!
Aquele dia prometido
A antiga fé de nossos pais
Dia em que o mal será banido
Mudando em risos nossos “ais”!
Orvalhai lá do alto, ó céus
E as nuvens chovam o justo!
Quando felizes o veremos
No firmamento despontar
E a espargir clarões supremos
Da terra as trevas dispersar?
Orvalhai lá do alto, ó céus
E as nuvens chovam o justo!
Filha de reis, ó virgem pura
Sai da modesta posição
Em ti, embora criatura
De Deus, se fez a encarnação!
Orvalhai lá do alto, ó céus
E as nuvens chovam o justo!
When Will You Come, Lord
When will it come, Lord, the day
When the Savior appears
And the prophecy is fulfilled
Was born in the world the Redeemer?
Dew from above, oh heavens
And let the clouds rain the just!
That promised day
The ancient faith of our fathers
Day when evil will be banished
Turning our 'woes' into laughter!
Dew from above, oh heavens
And let the clouds rain the just!
When will we see him happy
Rising in the firmament
And spreading supreme light
Dispersing the darkness from the earth?
Dew from above, oh heavens
And let the clouds rain the just!
Daughter of kings, oh pure virgin
Leave the modest position
In you, although a creature
Of God, the incarnation was made!
Dew from above, oh heavens
And let the clouds rain the just!
