Paroles et traduction Cristina Mel - A Mulher Samaritana

A Mulher Samaritana

Se tu soubesses quem era o moço
Na beira do poço
Que a ti pediu de beber
Se tu soubesses
O que ele tinha para te oferecer
Se tu soubesses

Que nem mesmo Jacó
Arquiteto deste lugar,
Poderia fazer desta fonte aqui jorrar
Água da vida.

Se tu soubesses que não era tão somente um judeu
Que não era simplesmente um plebeu
Mas o Cristo, o Messias
A quem querias tanto ver,
Se soubesses...
Pediria da água especial
Saciaria tua sede espiritual
Oh! Se tu soubesses...

The Samaritan Woman

If you knew who the young man was
By the well
Who asked you for a drink
If you knew
What he had to offer you
If you knew

That not even Jacob
Architect of this place,
Could make this fountain spring forth
Water of life.

If you knew that he was not just a Jew
That he was not simply a plebeian
But the Christ, the Messiah
Whom you wanted so much to see,
If you knew...
You would ask for special water
You would quench your spiritual thirst
Oh! If you knew...
