Lyrics and translation Gian & Giovani - Milagre da Flecha - Ao Vivo

Milagre da Flecha - Ao Vivo

Era alta madrugada
Já cansado da jornada, eu voltava pro meu lar
Quando apareceu no escuro
Me encostando contra o muro
Um ladrão, pra me assaltar

Com o revólver no pescoço
Ainda expliquei pro moço: tenho filho pra criar
Sou arrimo de família, leva tudo, me humilha
Mas não queira me matar (e aí?)

Ave Maria
Aleluia
Ave Maria

Mas o homem sem piedade, um escravo da maldade
Começou me maltratar
E pra ver se eu tinha medo
Antes de puxar o dedo, ele me mandou rezar

Eu nunca tinha rezado, eu que era só pecado
Implorei por salvação
Elevei meu pensamento
Descobri nesse momento o que é ter religião

Ave Maria
Aleluia
Ave Maria

Um clarão apareceu, minha vista escureceu
E o bandido desmaiou
E morreu, não teve jeito
Com uma flecha no peito sem saber quem atirou

Nessa hora a gente grita, chora e acredita
Que o milagre aconteceu
De joelhos na calçada, peguntei com voz cansada
Quem será que me atendeu? (E aí?)

Ave Maria
Aleluia
Ave Maria

Já estava amanhecendo, a alegria me aquecendo
Quando entrei na Catedral
Cada santo que eu via
Eu de novo agradecia e jurava ser leal

Veja o santo de passagem, não me toque nas imagens
Me avisou o sacristão
Pois lá ninguém explicava
Uma flecha que faltava na imagem de São Sebastião

Ave Maria
Aleluia
Ave Maria

Ave Maria
Aleluia
Ave Maria

Miracle of the Arrow - Live

It was late at night
Tired of the journey, I was returning home
When he appeared in the dark,
Pushing me against the wall,
A thief, to rob me

With a gun to my neck,
I explained to the man: I have children to raise,
I am the head of the family, take everything, humiliate me,
But don't kill me (what?)

Hail Mary,
Hallelujah,
Hail Mary.

But the merciless man, a slave to evil,
Began to mistreat me,
And to see if I was afraid,
He made me pray before pulling the trigger.

I had never prayed before, I was nothing but sin,
I begged for salvation,
I raised my thoughts,
I discovered in that moment what it means to have religion.

Hail Mary,
Hallelujah,
Hail Mary.

A flash of light appeared, my vision blurred,
And the bandit fainted
And died, there was no way,
With an arrow in his chest, not knowing who shot it.

At that moment we shout, cry and believe
That the miracle happened
On my knees on the sidewalk, I asked with a tired voice,
Who answered me? (What?)

Hail Mary,
Hallelujah,
Hail Mary.

It was already dawn, joy was warming me
When I entered the Cathedral
Every saint I saw
I thanked him again and vowed to be loyal

Look at the passing saint, don't touch the images
The sacristan warned me,
For no one there explained
An arrow missing from the image of St. Sebastian

Hail Mary,
Hallelujah,
Hail Mary.

Hail Mary,
Hallelujah,
Hail Mary.
