Black Death

Uma praga andou entre nósA plague walked among us
Como as pessoas fugiram com medo de suas cidadesAs people fled in fear of their cities
Mas a doença permaneceuBut the disease remained
E logo a morte estava em toda parteAnd soon death was everywhere

Homens odiavamMen hated each other
Os pais abandonaram suas crianças doentesParents abandoned their sick children
Esposas foram SoltouWives were dropped back
Maridos foram enterradosHusbands were buried

Os corpos foram abandonados em casaBodies were left abandoned at home
Porque não havia ninguém para fazer-lhes um funeralBecause there was no one to make them a funeral

Vários se recusou a sairSeveral refused to leave
A casa devido à morteThe house due to the dying
Frades e freiras foram para cuidar de pacientesFriars and nuns were to take care of pacients

Mosteiros e conventosMonasteries and convents
logo estavam desertasWere soon deserted
Eles também foram severamente afetadasThey were also severely affected

Os corpos foram abandonados em casaBodies were left abandoned at home
Porque não havia ninguém para fazer-lhes um funeralBecause there was no one to make them a funeral

Muitos queriam confessar seus pecadosMany wanted to confess his sins
Expressar seus últimos desejosExpress his last wishes
Vivia com medo, em suas cabeças não entendiaLived in fear, in their heads did not understand

Mas as casas dos mortos permaneceu abertoBut the houses of the dead remained open
Com todos os seus pertences, jóias e ouroWith all their belongings, jewels and gold
Com os braços abertos, a morte negra esperavaWith open arms, the black death was waiting

Os corpos foram abandonados em casaBodies were left abandoned at home
Porque não havia ninguém para fazer-lhes um funeralBecause there was no one to make them a funeral
