Nossa Senhora Aparecida

Oh Lady of Aparecida
Queen of my faith
The strength of the strong
Shield of the weak
Place your sacred hand
Upon our heads
Comfort the oppressed
Protection of the innocent
Free us from the ignorance
That exists in this world
Misery, violence, and hunger
Our saddest truth

Oh Lady of Aparecida
Our Lady of Aparecida
You are the light of my path
Guidance in my life!

Oh Lady of Aparecida
Look at our children
Our innocent future
Needs hope
Needs to grow in life
In grace and wisdom
To sleep like a child
And wake up to a new day
There is no tomorrow
If today dies now
We are with our hearts
In your hands, Virgin Lady

Oh Lady of Aparecida
Our Lady of Aparecida
You are the light of my path
Guidance in my life!

Oh Lady of Aparecida
Do not let us perish
We are a people who dream
A people who pray and believe
Light the flame of hope
For the poor who have nothing
Show that the greatest wealth
Is to live doing good
Do not allow man
To stray from God
Care for us, Aparecida mother
Your humble children

Oh Lady of Aparecida
Our Lady of Aparecida
You are the light of my path
Guidance in my life!

Oh Lady of Aparecida
Who is so close to the Father
Please answer me
Where is this world going
Show the magic of life
And the power of forgiveness
What should we do
To gain salvation
Because I do not know how to pray
That's why I made this song
Oh mother, accept my song
As my prayer

Oh Lady of Aparecida
Our Lady of Aparecida
You are the light of my path
Guidance in my life!
