a pomba que repousa naquela árvore.the dove that rests in yonder tree.
A luz que brilha para todos verem,The light that shines for all to see,

A esperança que dormiu por 2000 anos,The hope that has slumbered for 2000 years,

Some toda a dor que as pessoas podem carregar,Add all the grief that people may bear,
totalize as lutas, os problemas e o pesar.total the strife, the troubles and care.
Coloque tudo em colunasPut them in columns
