Riquezas do Céu
Oh! Buscai, não as riquezas
Deste mundo de incertezas!
As do Céu não têm tristezas
Oh! Buscai-as, sim, buscai!
Oh! Buscai. Não as loucuras
Que só trazem amarguras
Mas as eternais venturas
Oh! Buscai-as, sim, buscai!
Oh! Buscai Jesus primeiro
Ao real, fiel Cordeiro!
Nele há gozo verdadeiro
Oh! Buscai-o, sim, buscai!
Sim, buscai Jesus bendito
Seu amor é infinito
Inefável, inaudito
Oh! Buscai-o, sim, buscai!
Oh! Buscai a santidade
A pureza, a caridade!
Com temor, com humildade
Oh! Buscai-as! Sim, buscai!
De Jesus imitadores
Sede bons trabalhadores!
E buscai os pecadores
Oh! Buscai-os, sim, buscai!
Com amor, a convidá-los
Ide agora procurá-los
Pois Jesus manda chamá-los
Oh! Buscai-os, sim, buscai!
Heavenly Riches
Oh! Seek, not the riches
Of this world of uncertainties!
The ones from Heaven have no sorrows
Oh! Seek them, yes, seek!
Oh! Seek. Not the madness
That only brings bitterness
But the eternal joys
Oh! Seek them, yes, seek!
Oh! Seek Jesus first
The real, faithful Lamb!
In Him there is true joy
Oh! Seek Him, yes, seek!
Yes, seek blessed Jesus
His love is infinite
Ineffable, unheard of
Oh! Seek Him, yes, seek!
Oh! Seek holiness
Purity, charity!
With fear, with humility
Oh! Seek them! Yes, seek!
Be imitators of Jesus
Be good workers!
And seek the sinners
Oh! Seek them, yes, seek!
With love, inviting them
Go now to find them
For Jesus commands to call them
Oh! Seek them, yes, seek!
