Sansão

Samson was a Nazirite boySansão era um menino Nazireu
To deliver his parents from the hands of the PhilistinesPara livrar seus pais das mãos dos filisteus
The boy grew up and the Lord blessed himO menino ficou grande e o Senhor o abençoou
And he lived driven by the Spirit of the LordE vivia impelido pelo Espírito do Senhor

Samson killed a lion with his bare handsSansão matou um leão com a mão desarmada
And also killed a thousand men with a jawboneE matou também mil homens com uma queixada
And with three hundred foxes he made a great fireE com trezentas raposas fez uma grande queimada
But a little fox remained enclosed in his chestMas ficou uma raposinha em seu peito encerrado

The name of the little fox is called passionO nome da raposinha chama-se paixão
For it has defeated many brothersPois ela tem derrotado muitos irmãos
Samson saw Delilah and was soon defeatedSansão enxergou Dalila e logo foi derrotado
Played at being tied up and ended up tied upBrincou de ser amarrar e ficou mesmo amarrado

The secret of his power was in his hairO segredo do poder estava no cabelo
And with a carnal passion he lost his zealE com uma paixão carnal ele perdeu o zelo
And ended up revealing the Lord's secretE acabou revelando o segredo do Senhor
He was taken captive and lost his eyesFoi levado ao cativeiro e os olhos lhe custou

Without eyes and hair and still tied upSem os olhos e cabelos e ainda amarrado
He worked as a slave and was torturedTrabalhava como escravo e era torturado
But one day he felt his hair growingMas um dia ele sentiu o cabelo a crescer
Realized that his faith was being revivedPercebeu que sua fé estava a reviver

He was taken to play before the PhilistinesFoi levado pra brincar diante dos Filisteus
But his heart was already turned to GodMas já tinha o coração voltado para Deus
He raised his voice and said: Oh Great GodLevantou a sua voz e disse: Oh Grande Deus
Strengthen me just this once, let me die with the PhilistinesEsforça só essa vez morra eu com os Filisteus
