It Wasn't His Child

Não Era Seu Filho

It Wasn't His Child

Ele era o homem dela, ela era a esposa deleHe was her man, she was his wife
E numa noite fria de invernoAnd late one winter night
Ele se ajoelhou ao lado delaHe knelt by her
Enquanto ela dava à luzAs she gave birth
Mas não era seu filho,But it wasn't his child,
Não era seu filhoIt wasn't his child

Ainda assim, ele o tomou como seuYet still he took him as his own
E enquanto o via crescerAnd as he watched him grow
Isso lhe trouxe alegriaIt brought him joy
Mas não era seu filhoBut it wasn't his child
Não era seu filhoIt wasn't his child

Mas como um pai, ele era forte e gentilBut like a father he was strong and kind
E eu acredito que ele fez o melhor que pôdeAnd I believe he did his best
Não foi fácil para eleIt wasn't easy for him
Mas ele fez tudo o que podiaBut he did all could
Seu filho era diferente dos outrosHis son was different from the rest
Não era seu filhoIt wasn't his child
Não era seu filhoIt wasn't his child

E quando o garoto se tornou homemAnd when the boy became a man
Ele pegou a mão do paiHe took his father's hand
E logo o mundoAnd soon the world
Saberia o porquêWould all know why
Não era seu filhoIt wasn't his child
Não era seu filhoIt wasn't his child

Mas como um pai, ele era forte e gentilBut like a father he was strong and kind
E eu acredito que ele fez o melhor que pôdeAnd I believe he did his best
Não foi fácil para eleIt wasn't easy for him
Mas ele fez tudo o que podiaBut he did all could
Ele cresceu com as mãos na madeiraHe grew up with his hands in wood
E morreu com as mãos na madeiraAnd he died with his hands in wood
Ele era filho de Deus,He was God's child,
Ele era filho de DeusHe was God's child

Ele era o homem delaHe was her man
Ela era a esposa deleShe was his wife
E numa noite qualquerAnd late one night
Ele se ajoelhou ao lado delaHe knelt by her
Enquanto ela dava à luzAs she gave birth
Mas não era seu filhoBut it wasn't his child
Era filho de Deus.It was God's child
