Mal Começava o Domingo a Semana
Mal começava domingo, a semana
Lá vem as mulheres com flores e aromas
De passo em passo, de rua em rua
O Sol já havia surgido, aleluia!
Bendito o Deus de Israel
Que a seu povo visitou
E deu-nos libertação
Enviando um salvador
Da casa do rei Davi
Seu ungido servidor
Mal começava domingo, a semana
Lá vem as mulheres com flores e aromas
De passo em passo, de rua em rua
O Sol já havia surgido, aleluia!
Cumpriu a voz dos profetas
Desde os tempos mais antigos
Quis libertar seu povo
Do poder dos inimigos
Lembrando-se da aliança
De Abraão e dos antigos
Mal começava domingo, a semana
Lá vem as mulheres com flores e aromas
De passo em passo, de rua em rua
O Sol já havia surgido, aleluia!
Fez a seu povo a promessa
De viver na liberdade
Sem medos e sem pavores
Dos que agem com maldade
E sempre a ele servir
Na justiça e santidade
Mal começava domingo, a semana
Lá vem as mulheres com flores e aromas
De passo em passo, de rua em rua
O Sol já havia surgido, aleluia!
Menino, serás profeta
Do Altíssimo Senhor
Pra ir à frente aplainando
Os caminhos do Senhor
Anunciando o perdão
A um povo pecador
Mal começava domingo, a semana
Lá vem as mulheres com flores e aromas
De passo em passo, de rua em rua
O Sol já havia surgido, aleluia!
É ele o Sol do Oriente
Que vos veio visitar
Da morte, da escuridão
Vem a todos libertar
A nós seu povo remido
Para a paz faz caminhar
Mal começava domingo, a semana
Lá vem as mulheres com flores e aromas
De passo em passo, de rua em rua
O Sol já havia surgido, aleluia!
