Se Quiseres Saber Quem Eu Sou
Josely Scarabelli
If You Want to Know Who I Am
If you want to know who I am
Ask the passing stream
And it will answer you
Murmuring in beauty and grace
Ask the simple flower
That has just bloomed
And it will tell you who I am, in its fragrant exhale
If you want to know who I am
Ask the serene breeze
And gently it will answer with complete certainty
Ask the falling rain
That comes to fertilize the earth
Quickly the answer will come
In every little drop singing
He is the eternal Lord
God of the sky, earth, and sea
The hand that sustains the world
With such great and supreme power
He is eternity
He is the future beyond
He is the constant certainty
In the presence of today as well.
If you want to know who I am
Ask the kind little bird
And soon the answer will come
Resonating through the path
Ask the shining star
So distant, lost in the beyond
And from it you will have the answer, for it will tell you too
If you want to know who I am
Ask the wanderer
And the man will answer you
Without hesitating for a moment
Ask the sun and the moon
Do not tire of asking
And you will always hear the answer
In beams of light shining
If you want to know who I am
Ask here and now
And soon this people will say
In an answer that comes without delay
They will all say in one voice
The certainty that never lacked
And joyfully they will sing here:
Who I was, who I will be, who I am
